Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Design of Marine Engines and Auxiliaries In the section on Engine Balancing, although no portion of the material is original, much time and effort has been expended in correlating the work of various investigators. The question of pressures upon main bearings will be found more extensively treated in a paper by the author in Vol. 18, Part I, of The Journal of the American Society of Naval Engineers. The author wishes to acknowledge the kindness of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company in permitting him to use certain drawings for Plates 1, 2, and 3.
