Knowledge of added body masses that interact with fluid is necessary in various research and applied tasks of hydro- and aeromechanics: steady and unsteadymotion of rigid bodies, total vibration of bodies in fluid, local vibration of the external plating of different structures. This reference book contains data on added masses of ships and various ship and marine engineering structures. Also theoretical and experimental methods for determining added masses of these objects are described. A major part of the material is presented in the format of final formulas and plots which are ready for practical use. The book summarises all key material that was published in both Russian and English-language literature. This volume is intended for technical specialists of shipbuilding and related industries. The author is one of the leading Russian expertsin the area of ship hydrodynamics. Summarizes most of known results on added masses of objects of various geometry Essentially self-contained and includes the necessary theoretical backgroun Easy to use in practice: most of results are presented in the form of final formulas and plots Selected sections of the book devoted to added masses of vibrating bodies are written by other leading Russian marine engineers INDICE: 1. General discussion of Body Motion in Ideal Infinite Fluid. 2. The added masses of planar contours moving in ideal unlimited fluid. 3. Added masses of three-dimensional bodies in infinite fluid. 4. Added masses of interacting bodies. 5. Added masses of bodies moving close to free surface. 6. Addedmasses of fluid under elastic oscillations of structures and their components. 7. Elastic one-dimensional oscillations of an elongated body in fluid: reduction coefficients. 8. Added masses of propeller. 9. Methods for experimental determination of added masses. References.
