The book introduces the theory of the structural loading on ships and offshore structures caused by wind, waves and currents, and goes on to describe the applications of this theory in terms of real structures. The main topics described are linearwave induced motions, loads on floating structures, numerical methods for ascertaining wave induced motions and loads, viscous wave loads and damping, stationkeeping and water impact and entry. The applications of the theoretical principles are introduced with extensive use of exercises and examples. They include conventional ships, barges, high speed marine vehicles, semisubmersibles, tension leg platforms, moored or dynamic positioned ships, risers, buoys, fishing nets, jacket structures and gravity platforms. One aim of the book is to provide a physical understanding through simplified mathematical models. In this way one can develop analytical tools to evaluate results from test models, full scale trials or computer simulation, and learn which parameters represent the major contributions and influences on sea loads.

This book has a lot of valuable content about loads on ships and offshore structures, but I found the index to be lacking. It took me some time to find the information I needed. Still, the chapters themselves are well written and insightful for anyone in maritime studies.

Disappointing, Not What I Expected
I was really looking forward to this book, but it arrived with a few pages crinkled, and the content wasn't as engaging as I hoped. It felt overly complicated at times and my interest waned. I might try a newer edition later, but this one was a letdown.

Great Resource for Maritime Engineers
I bought this book from the Cambridge Ocean Technology Series for my marine engineering class. It's packed with useful info about loads on ships and offshore structures. It's a little technical, but if you're in the field, you'll appreciate the depth it provides!
