For each marine engine, information is provided on the manufacturer, historical background, development and technical characteristics of the manufacturer''s most popular models, and detailed drawings of the engine, depicting its main design features.
This book offers a unique, self-contained reference guide for engineers and professionals involved in shipbuilding. At the same time, it is intended to support students at maritime academies and university students in naval architecture/marine engineering with their design projects at both master and graduate levels, thus filling an important gap in the literature.
