The document discusses navigating ships through muddy waters and defining the "nautical bottom". It explores using rheological properties of mud as a criterion for the nautical bottom, as mud is a non-Newtonian fluid whose properties impact ship controllability. Useful configurations for further research include studying forces on structures in mud layers and ship manoeuvring above mud with varying properties to better link mud characteristics to ship behavior and operational limits. A multidisciplinary approach is needed combining rheology, CFD, and ship modelling.
