This bibliography contains citations concerning maneuverability, motion studies, and accident analysis of tugboat towed ships and barges. Topics include tugboat tanker interactions in ports under normal and emergency situations. Ocean-going, coastal and inland waterway tug/barge systems are included. Sea worthiness and motion studies of towed, push towed and rigidly connected tug/barge systems are considered.
