Description
The essential coursebook for all students studying general marine engineering.

Accessibly written and clearly illustrated with technical engineering drawings, it covers all the latest equipment, practices and trends in marine engineering. It incorporates the 2010 Manila Amendments, particularly relating to management.
This latest edition reflects all the developments in the field, including updates and additions on, amongst other things:
- Sustainable ships systems
- Hybrid power and energy management systems
- Battery technology and hydrogen fuel cells
- Biofuels
- Waste heat recovery
- Corrosion of metals in sea water
- SOLAS rules on steering ships
