The relevance of research

Grain is one of the most ancient cargoes. Archaeological finds confirm that the transportation of grain originated simultaneously with navigation. For more than one thousand years, grain has occupied a significant part in the total volume of cargo transportation by sea. Transportation of grain in bulk led to a sharp increase in the accident rate, which necessitated the construction of a new type of ships - bulk carriers
