Record #169009:

The origin and evolution of the icebreaking ship / Clive Grahame Thorne.

Title: The origin and evolution of the icebreaking ship / Clive Grahame Thorne.
Author(s): Thorne, Clive Grahame.
Date: 2004.
Abstract: University of Wales MPhil dissertation looking at all aspects of the icebreaking vessel. Reviews history of icebreakers. Discusses distribution and physical characteristics of sea, lake and river ice and principles of ice breaking. Examines developments in hull (particularly bow) design, superstructure and deck equipment, and propulsion. Lists particulars of icebreaking vessels from 1837 to 2004. Looks to future of navigability as climate and vessel capabilities change.
Notes:
