Russian term or phrase: непотопляемость и живучесть морских плавсредств
Help,please, to translate the passage:
С.О. Макаров исследовал проблемы непотопляемости и живучести морских плавсредств, применения минного и торпедного оружия, разработал тактику ведения боя броненосного флота и предложил учитывать распределения параметров среды при применении сил.

sea craft floatability and survivability
Explanation:
Все-таки floatability и survivability, a не stability.

Floability is the ability of the line to sit on top of the water - on the
surface skin. A line may be a very good floater, but not be very buoyant.
The buoyancy the is governed by the density of the line in relation to
that of water. A buoyant line such as the Super Low Density River & Stream model, when ducked under by a strong current in a river will recover to the surface very rapidly - as much as six times more rapidly than a conventional floater.
A steel pin, when placed gently on the surface of water can float forever - that is until it is disturbed. The pin has negative buoyancy but good floatability.

Живучесть судна - это не stability. Stability - это устойчивость (или, более по-морскому, остойчивость судна, т.е. способность противостоять качке, крену, сюда относится также правильное размещение балласта, грузов и т.д. и т.п.) А живучесть - это способность противостоять авариям, пробоинам. Адмирал Макаров высказал ряд ценных предложений по созданию системы непотопляемости судов, предложил ряд новых технических устройств, в том числе и специальный пластырь для заделки пробоин ("макаровский пластырь").

The whole sentence:

S.O. Makarov studied the problems of sea craft floatability and survivability, mines and torpedoes usage, worked out the armored fleet battle tactics and suggested that environmental parameters should be taken into consideration when using battleships.

buoyancy and stability of seafaring vessels


Explanation:
Makarov investigated the buoyancy and stability of seafaring vessels, the utilization of mines and torpedoes; worked out battle tactics for armored fleets and suggested that environmental parameters be taken into account when using the armed forces.
