Year: 1972 Language: English Author: Shufeldt H.H. Genre: Manual Publisher: United States Naval Institute Format: PDF, DjVu Quality: eBook Pages count: 208 Description: This book contains examples of problems that are most readily solved with the slide rule, and of others that are most readily solved by other means but for which the slide rule can be used when the best means is not available. In addition, it includes two methods of fixing position by observations of a single body. These are given only as a matter of possible interest to the navigator, as instrumentation of sufficient accuracy to permit their successful use afloat is not yet available. The book does not by any means cover all the work that can advantageously be done afloat with the slide rule, and the reader may enjoy discovering a lot more.
