Sinopsis
Excerpt from Structural Design of Warships
This work is based on a series of lectures prepared for a course in Naval Construction which was established by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1901 for officers of the United States Navy detailed to take this course in preparation for the duties as Naval Constructors. The lectures have been developed during the last thirteen years and, having now taken a fairly permanent form, it was' thought desirable to print them, partly for reasons of instruction, and partly in the hope that they might be useful to naval constructors and designers of warships in general.
The course in Naval Construction extends over three years and consists of lectures and design work. The general plan of the lectures will be here briefly outlined in order to show the place which the present work occupies in the course.

Excerpt from Structural Design of Warships
The work of collecting the material and preparing it in a form that would be useful to the students presented considerable difficulty. The existing sources of information are very scattered, consisting in text books, handbooks, essays and articles, specifications, drawings, rules, and regulations. The text-books contain much valuable information, but, excepting some of the French books, they deal with so many other aspects of warship design that the discussion of structural features is necessarily brief and chiefly of a descriptive nature. It is the object here to present a more comprehensive discussion than hitherto given of this special branch of warship design, exhibiting in particular its relation to fundamental principles and conditions. On account of the vastness of the subject it has been found necessary to restrict the scope of the work to the main features of the hull proper. The descriptive part is made subservient to the discussion of principles; but where descriptions and sketches of structural parts are given, they represent, as far as possible, recent practice. Where important points of difference exist in the modes of construction in different navies they are critically compared.
In the study of current practice it was often found difficult to discover the reasons why certain features were adopted and in some cases why they differed in different navies. The explanation is in general that once a certain mode of construction has been introduced in one of the leading navies and found satisfactory it becomes a standard. Gradually the reason for its adoption may be forgotten, and the construction is used as a matter of routine. It may even happen that the conditions which called forth the construction change or cease to exist, and that it survives simply because there is a vague feeling that something will go wrong if it is changed or abolished. A study of such questions cannot fail to be fruitful, because it leads naturally to suggestions 'for improvements. Moreover, in a work of this nature, it is desirable fully to state and explain the reasons for the adoption of the various structural features, inasmuch as such information will be of value, not only to the inexperienced student of the present time, but also as a matter of record for the future.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book on structural design for warships is a comprehensive guide to the materials and methods used in constructing armored ships. The author draws from a wealth of historical examples as well as expertise in the field of naval construction to demonstrate the evolution and effectiveness of different designs. Beginning with the introduction of iron and steel in shipbuilding, the author discusses the properties of various materials including wood, copper, zinc, and aluminum. From there, the book moves on to the assembly of these materials into a ship's hull, including descriptions of the processes used to build each part of the ship. The author also explores common points of structural failure and suggests methods to avoid them through uniform strength of construction and the use of redundant materials. Overall, this book thoroughly examines the complexities of warship structural design, offering valuable insights to students, naval architects, marine engineers, and anyone looking to expand their knowledge on the subject. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781333561895_0
