Resistance prediction of double acting tanker in ice condition

An icebreaker ship should have ice bow design at its stem part. It should have ice bow design because a common bow design has high resistance when sailing in open water. In order to solve the problem, previous researchers had introduced a Double-Acting Tanker (DAT) which is able to sail astern on se...
