title: Comparison of main engine tension indicators tow-pusher when working in towing and pushing modes
abstract: Maintaining the operability of vessels that have worked out a significant resource since their construction will allow you to get additional profit. The paper presents a comparative analysis of the operational parameters of the main engine of a pusher tug operating in the modes of pushing and towing barge trains. The studies were carried out in a computational and theoretical way. The main attention is paid to the analysis of the parameters of the main engine, which determine its mechanical and
