The maneuverability of ships is influenced by several factors, including ship design, size,
propulsion system, hull shape, and external conditions such as wind, waves, and currents …

This study attempts to shed new light on the dynamics of a turning ship using the principles
of free body diagrams (FBDs). Unexpectedly, the literature gap is defined by incomplete and …

There is no unique point for wave-induced ship motions, so the definition of a center of
rotation (CR) is proposed in this work. The CR is the point where the linear accelerations are …

The traditional theory regarding the pivot point of a ship during maneuvering, so called
apparent pivot point, is located nearly at 1/3 ship's length from the bow when the ship is …

Se recopila información relacionada con el punto de pivote (o punto de giro) del buque
durante un giro, teniendo en cuenta información derivada de notas y manuales prácticos de …
