Hydrodynamics of High-Speed Marine Vehicles, first published in 2006, discusses how ocean waves and the water flow affect high-speed vessels and how this depends on the vessel type and forward speed. All aspects of marine hydrodynamics are covered with an emphasis on rational and simplified methods. The book contains many illustrations, examples and exercises.

Discusses the three main categories of high-speed marine vehicles - vessels supported by submerged hulls, air cushions or foils.
