RESUMEN DEL LIBRO: Principles of Yacht Design has now established itself as the standard book on the subject for practising designers, naval architecture students, discerning boat owners and the boatbuiilding industry as a whole. Now revised and expanded for the third edition, it examines every aspect of the process of yacht and powerboat design. The authors have used a newly designed 40 foot performance cruiser to demonstrate the practical application of yacht design theory. Beggining with the yacht's specifications, the authors examine: The geometry of the hull using lines plans and CAD techniques. Hydrostatics and stability in calm water as well as waves. Design of the hull, keel and rudder. The aerodynamics of the sails and the consequential influence on the sail plan. How to find the balance of the yacht. Selecting the correct propeller and engine. The special hydrodynamics of high - speed power boats. Structural design aspects for both sail and power boats. Loads acting on the hull and rig, and methods for computing them. Different fibre reinforced plastics, including sandwich laminates. The authors conclude by examining practical matters such as the layout of the cockpit, deck and cabin, and provide a complete weight calculation for the boat. llustrated with many explanatory diagrams, teh authors have succeeded in making this complex subject remarkably clear and accessible for professionals and amateurs alike.
PRINCIPIOS DEL DISEÑO DE YATES:
Este libro, se ha convertido por derecho propio, en el libro estándard, del tema para diseñadores, estudiantes de arquitectura naval, así como para exigentes propietarios de embarcaciones y constructores. Revisado y aumentado en esta tercera edición, examina cada aspecto del proceso del diseño de un yate. Los autores, han utilizado para ello, un crucero de 40 pies para demostrar las aplicaciones prácticas de la teoría del diseño. Comenzando por las especificaciones del yate, los autores repasan: la geometría del casco utilizando planos y técnicas CAD. Hidrostática y estabilidad, tanto en aguas tranquilas como con oleaje. Diseño del casco, de la quilla y del timón. La aerodinámica de las velas y su influencia en plano de las mismas. Cómo hallar el equilibrio de un yate. Elegir la hélice y el motor adecuados a la embarcación. La aerodinámica respecto a embarcaciones con motores de gran velocidad. Aspectos estructurales del diseño, tanto para embarcaciones a vela como a motor. Fuerzas que actúan sobre el casco y sobre el aparejo, y métodos para medirlas. Las diferentes fibras de plástico reforzado, incluyendo laminados en sandwich. Los autores concluyen examinando lo realmente importante, como el trazado de la cabina del piloto, la cubierta y camarote, y proporciona un completo cálculo del peso de la embarcación. Ilustrado con diagramas explicatorios, los autores, han conseguido con éxito, realizar este tema tan complejo, de una forma clara y accesible.
