Within the last two decades, however, hydraulics have been increasingly substituted for electrical equipment, and many shipboard engineers have lacked the skills and extensive background needed for the repair and maintenance of hydraulic systems. Training and instructional materials have not kept pace with the changes. Applied Marine Hydraulics meets this growing need.An excellent handbook of marine hydraulics. -- The Westcoast Mariner  aMarine engineering  aShips - Hydraulic equipment  aHydraulic engineering  aHydrostatics
