Propeller Performance Enhancement for Ice-going Ships
Maritime traffic has increased in the Baltic Sea as well in the Arctic Sea in recent years. As the climate becomes warmer this trend is expected to continue. It is expected that more ships designed for open-water operations will enter ice-infested waters and propeller damages due to ice-propeller in...
