The essential textbook for all students preparing for Marine Engineer Officer exams. Covering the theoretical, fundamental aspects of naval architecture, this textbook is aimed at students preparing for the Class 1 and Class 2 Marine Engineer Officer exams. It introduces the foundation themes within naval architecture (hydrostatics, stability, resistance and powering), using worked examples to show how solutions should be presented for an exam. The topics are ordered as they might be in a typical taught module, to aid the use of the book by lecturers as a complement to a course. The text and figures continue to be updated in line with modern practice. Many of the figures are three-dimensional diagrams. The book also includes sample examination questions with worked examples to aid students in their learning. As well as an expanded section on stability that considers inclining experiments, this new edition also factors in changes within the industry as it moves towards Net Zero propulsion. Due to the pace of innovation, students who qualify today will see big changes during their careers, and this edition anticipates this and prepares students for such developments.

This exciting new edition covers the core subject areas of arithmetic, algebra, mensuration in 2D and 3D, trigonometry and geometry, graphs, calculus and statistics and probability for Marine Engineering students. Initial examples have been designed purely to practise mathematical technique and, once these skills have been mastered, further examples focus on engineering situations where the appropriate skills may be utilised. The practical questions are primarily from a marine engineering background but questions from other disciplines, such as electrical engineering, will also be covered, and reference made to the use of advanced calculators where relevant.

Within the marine and offshore industry, there is a clear and growing need for increased training and education on the use of electrical power systems. The number of electrical plant and appliances now in service has grown at an alarming rate in recent years, as has the amount of electrical power generated and utilised on board. Large passenger ships now carry as many electrical officers as marine engineers, and electrical propulsion is now in common use by LNG carriers, small parcel tankers, oil tankers, ferries, offshore support, the navy, fleet auxiliary, cable layers and cruise ships. A number of shipping companies now award the Chief Electro Technical Officer the equivalent rank to the ship's master and Chief Engineer. These developments have resulted in the establishment of a Foundation Degree programme for Electro Technical Officers and the current development of full degree programmes. As such, a targeted textbook for students on the subject is required. As with all titles in the Reeds Marine Engineering Series, this book will be written in clear, accessible language, so as to be of use to all students and particularly those for whom English isn't their first language. Technical drawings and diagrams will be used throughout and each chapter will be accompanied by example examination questions.
