Ocean Resources Volume II Subsea Work Systems and Technologies

Ocean Resources Volume II Subsea Work Systems and Technologies / edited by D.A. Ardus, M.A. Champ.

Ocean engineering is generally considered to be concerned with studies on the effects of the ocean on the land and with the design, construction and operation of vehicles, structures and systems for use in the ocean or marine environment. The practice of engineering differs from that of science in b...
