Each chapter begins with a detailed list of aims and objectives, followed by a helpful checklist at the end to ensure students have grasped the key concepts before progressing to the next topic area. With over 170 worked examples accompanied by fully explained solutions, the book enables students to actively engage with the material and develop the necessary key skills. The examples, ranging in difficulty from simple one-step solutions to SQA standard exam questions and beyond, are primarily based on a hypothetical ship. Additionally, the reader is provided with extracts from a typical data book for the ship, replicating the information found on actual ships. This allows students to apply their knowledge in a real-world context and develop practical skills.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo enhance the learning experience, this edition has been thoroughly updated in line with the recent changes in ship stability rules and regulations, as well as the updated national exam syllabus. Updates include corrections and clarifications to worked examples, new content on damaged stability and probabilistic stability, additional information on hydrostatic forces and centers of pressure, and extra material on stability information for small craft.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy incorporating these revisions, the book remains an invaluable resource for students seeking to gain a deep understanding of ship stability and its applications in the maritime industry. Whether you are a student, professional, or enthusiast, this guide will provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in this field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1286g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160 x 234 x 50 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781472969705                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 ed                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jonathan Ridley,Christopher Patterson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094150115578,"sku":"9781472969705","price":59.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/reeds-vol-13-ship-stability-powering-and-resistance","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
