COMMENTS ON SOME OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PHYSICAL CONCEPTS IN NAVAL ARCHITECTURE,

Abstract

Research is concerned with the scientific aspects of shipbuilding and, particularly, with certain fundamental physical concepts which play a major role in the scientific methods now in use. These concepts pertain cheiefly to three branches of applied mechanics; namely, fluid dynamics, elasticity, and hydroelasticity, which deal chiefly with ideal physical systems. (Author)
