Ship Design is a category focused on the principles and practice of creating seaworthy vessels, ranging from small craft to large commercial and naval ships. Books in this genre cover core naval architecture—hydrostatics, stability, structures, hydrodynamics, resistance and propulsion—along with materials, systems integration, and habitability and mission-driven layouts. The collection spans technical textbooks, professional references, historical and contemporary case studies, and accessible guides for enthusiasts and model builders. Common themes include design workflows and tools (sketching, CAD, simulation, model and tank testing), regulatory and classification requirements, shipbuilding methods, and lifecycle considerations such as maintainability, safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Richly illustrated with plans, schematics, and photographs, these works bridge theory and practice to show how concepts evolve into functional, efficient ships.
