Study on Stopping Ability of a Ship Equipped with Azimuth Propeller

An azimuth propeller can generate thrust in all directions by rotating its housing with an electric motor. An azimuth propeller can be operated using several methods to stop a ship. This study aims to derive an efficient method to stop a ship safely using an azimuth propeller through full-scale mane...

This study aims to derive an efficient method to stop a ship safely using an azimuth propeller through full-scale maneuvering trials with the research vessel “NARA” of Pukyong National University in 4.63 m/s (9 kts).
