Large ship motion mechanics in "narrow" ice channel

[摘要] The paper considers the motion mechanics of a large-size ship sailing in a "narrow" channel behind an icebreaker whose breadth is not as wide as that of the ship. Conditions when the ship is heading asymmetrically with respect to the channel axis are analyzed; ship ice resistance is estimated for the symmetric as well as asymmetric in-channel motion scenarios.
