Prof. Newman has written a comprehensive, graduate level textbook that covers most of
the modern theory describing boat motion. Ideal fluid flow, potential
flow, viscous flow, wave theory, lifting bodies, slender body theory --
it's all in this book. Prof. Newman has included enough mathematical
background that the book stands on its own, without requiring the use of
a shelf of other books to understand his theory. This book should be
on every naval architect's book shelf. |
