This document discusses the principles of stability and buoyancy for ships. It defines key terms like displacement, draft, freeboard, and reserve buoyancy. It explains the forces of gravity and buoyancy acting on a ship and how they are modeled as acting through the center of gravity (G) and center of buoyancy (B). The relationship between G, B, and the metacenter (M) determines whether a ship is stable, neutral, or unstable. Stability is further analyzed using curves that plot the righting arm (GZ) against angle of heel.
The ship at sea or lying in still water is constantly being subjected to a wide variety of stresses and strains, which result from the action of forces from outside and within the ship.
