Ship Hydrostatics and Stability, Third Edition, is a comprehensive guide to understanding ship hydrostatics in ship design and ship performance, taking you from first principles through basic and applied theory to contemporary mathematical techniques for ship design and project approval. Real-life examples are used to explain the theory and calculations using MATLAB and Excel.
The new edition of this trusted resource covers new naval architecture regulations, such as a Second-Generation Intact Stability Code (SGISC), and new case studies. Extensive reference to computational techniques is made throughout, and downloadable MATLAB files accompany the book to support your own hydrostatics and stability calculations.
The book also includes tables of notations and technical terms, as well as indexes in English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.

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). Ruben Lopez-Pulido is a member of the UK's Royal Institution of Naval Architects and the Spanish Association of Naval Architects. Former maritime attache of the Embassy of Spain in London and representative of Spain to the International Maritime Organization of the UN. He was a naval architect and software engineer at SENER working on the development of the naval architecture modules of the FORAN system, a CAD/CAM/CAE software for ship design and shipbuilding. He was a hydrodynamicist and stability of ships researcher at the CEHINAV (ETSIN-UPM) Madrid Ship Model Basin. In 2010, he received the Spanish National Outstanding Career Award for naval architects under 35 years of age to recognize his outstanding professional service and contributions to the maritime and shipping business, naval architecture, and marine engineering community.
