🔍 Key Concepts

• Bank effects in narrow channels and how water flow changes near a bank • Difference between forces from the bank versus the vessel’s own heading changes (yaw) • :How pressure changes between the bow and stern when close to a riverbank

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: when the bow is pushed away from the bank, is the water pressure on that side higher or lower? • Which term describes the pushing effect on the bow created by water piling up between the ship and the bank? • Which option refers to a general motion of the vessel’s heading, and which options are specific hydrodynamic effects near a bank?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which terms are specifically related to shallow or narrow-channel bank effects, not open-water behavior • Separate the answer choices into: hydrodynamic bank effects, general motion (like heading changes), and structural/force terms • Make sure the term you pick matches the bow moving away from the bank, not being pulled toward it
