COMBINING ICE CLASS RULES WITH DIRECT CALCULATIONS FOR DESIGN OF ARCTIC LNG VESSEL PROPULSION
Ships navigating in ice areas perform quite differently due to ice resistance as compared to their open sea operations. It is a challenge for ship designers to find a design solution which not only optimizes the propulsion performance in open sea but also provides the ship with good ice performance....
