One of the key challenges for hydrometeorological support and safe and cost-efficient navigation is developing an automatic method for selecting the optimal ship route in ice. In this study, we present results of testing AARI auto-routing...

... A ship navigating in ice-covered waters will interact with ice, generating forces. This is a process where the ship and the ice interact with each other. A good overview of the issues can be found in Kujala (2017). The forces measured depend on a number of factors, such as ice thickness, floe size, ice...
