Description

The book 'Structural Design of Warships' by William Hovgaard delves into the intricacies of designing the hull structure of warships. The author, a naval design and construction expert, provides detailed insights into the materials used, such as steel, wood, copper alloys, and aluminum. The book emphasizes the importance of continuity and uniformity of strength in ship design, highlighting the challenges faced in warship construction compared to merchant vessels. Hovgaard discusses the significance of calculated stress and the need for a tentative, cautious approach in reducing scantlings where redundant strength exists. The book outlines the subdivision of the subject into longitudinal strength, transverse strength, strength of individual girders, plating under fluid pressure, and strength of columns and plating under compression. Through a systematic approach and careful consideration of various factors, the author aims to provide a comprehensive guide to structural design in the context of warships.
