| Reference: This reference looks useful Reference information: Transverse thrust Transverse thrust is the tendency for a forward or astern running propeller to move the stern to starboard or port. Transverse thrust is caused by interaction between the hull, propeller and rudder. The effect of transverse thrust is a slight tendency for the bow to swing to port on a ship with a right-handed propeller turning ahead. Transverse thrust is often used to help bring the ship’s stern alongside during berthing. When a propeller is put astern on a ship moving forward at speed, the initial effect of transverse thrust is slight. However, as the ship’s forward motion decreases, the effect of transverse thrust increases. It is essential for a master to understand just how much effect transverse thrust has on his particular ship. https://www.standard-club.com/fileadmin/uploads/standardclub... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2023-09-19 22:57:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- There's a diagram of the manoeuvre on page 63. https://upcommons.upc.edu/bitstream/handle/2117/117162/Eugen... |
