This presentation is an abridged version of another, by Julia King, Director of Engineering & Technology, Rolls-Royce Marine Power. It illustrates a novel application of aircraft technology exploited in the "FastShip" concept. The Trent aeroengine is adapted to power a fast passenger ship. Reproduced with permission.

The complete, animated "PowerPoint" presentation can be dowloaded here: File 1 (17 Mbytes), and File 2 (0.5 Mbytes). The latter is the animated MPG movie of a propellor, and should be kept on the same directory as the former.
