The hydrostatic approach to ship stability aims to balance idealized ship weight against buoyancy forces. This textbook is a complete guide to understanding ship hydrostatics in ship design and ship performance. Adrian Biran guides readers from first principles through basic and applied hydrostatic and ship stability theory, and introduces contemporary mathematical techniques for hydrostatic modelling and analysis. Real life examples of the practical application of hydrostatics are used to explain the theory and calculations; and to illustrate the effect shifting weights and central gravity displacements have on overall ship stability. Ship Hydrostatics and Stability covers recent developments in the field of naval architecture such as parametric resonance (also known as the Mathieu effect), the effects of non-linear motions on stability, the influence of ship lines, and new international stability regulations for small vessels. Extensive use of computer techniques is made throughout.
Adrian Biran, DSc in Technology Sciences, worked for many years as an adjunct professor at the Technion—Israel Institute of Technology. He is the author of several technical papers and best-selling books published in six languages on various subjects, including naval architecture and MATLAB. Earlier in his career, he held roles including design engineer, chief of department, and project leader at IPRONAV (Bucharest, Romania), project leader at IPA (Bucharest, Romania), senior engineer at the Israel Shipyards (Haifa, Israel), and research engineer at the Technion R&D Foundation (Haifa, Israel).
