A measurement system to monitor propulsion performance and ice-induced shaftline dynamic response of icebreakers
Polar navigation entails challenges that affect the continuation of ship operations in severe ice conditions. Due to ice-propeller interaction, propulsion shafting segments are often at a high risk of failure. Efficient methods for shaft line design are hence needed to ensure the safety of ice-going...
