While the present book on ship hydroelasticity was written primarily with the naval architects in mind, it significantly differs from any other book on the same topic of those available today. The techniques that have been analyzed and described by the authors, had not found practical confirmation at the time when the book was first published.
That is why we would think that it is aimed more at the enthusiasts with deep interest in the science of naval architecture. One of the main issues that the authors faced was the fact that the discipline in question was developing and growing so rapidly, and the decision was made to concentrate on the basic theoretical material, supplemented with the specific results obtained from the real ships.
This would particularly refer to the slamming responses on steady waves – thorough investigation of the collected induced responses was conducted. In short, the authors restricted the content of the volume to the essential ideas, leaving the rest to the readers and future naval architects.
