With all types of electric machinery for propelling purposes so far installed, equal full power torques in ahead and astern directions can be developed; this makes for rapid reversal of ship's velocity, but propeller must not be reversed too quickly, as dangerous vibrations may be set up at stern of vessel; analysis of torques and thrusts generated during reversal; such measurements can be taken in electric ships.
