520 _aFor decades, the only hydraulic equipment aboard ship was the steering gear, and rarely did it require the attention associated with other equipment. 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
