Russian term or phrase: качка (судна)
I know that there are roll(ing) and pitch(ing), but I need an inclusive, more general term that would combine all types of качка.
Is that rocking?

ship's motion
Explanation:
качка судна is given in the New Great Russian-English Dictionary as "ship's motion," which seems pretty all-inclusive

agree  Jack Doughty: except that the spelling is "turbulence".
3 mins
  -> Thank you, Jack. Time to call it a day:)

neutral  Yuri Geifman: to me turbulence is more related to the condition of the medium (air turbulence, turbulent waters) rather than to what happens to a boat or an airplane that's in that turbulence... I would stick with tossing (Gilligan's Island - our tiny ship was tossed)
50 mins
  -> You are right, Yuri. I like tossing.

roll


Explanation:
Per the Joint Technical Language Service's and the FBIS R>E Military Dictionary.

Compare "roll-on roll-off" cargo ships

After checking with some other sources, however,
it seems the English term depends on the direction of the качкя:

носовая/продольная/килевая is \"pitching\", but

боковая/бортовая/поперечная is \"rolling\"

So perhaps the correct answer is \"no\" :-)

neutral  Irene N: Sorry, Gary. Контейнеровозы "ро-ро", как их называют в России означают, что груз на них закатывают и выкатывают без кранов - машины-погрузчики заезжают и выезжают, выгружая контейнеры на место на палубе или в трюме.

  -> True, ex. 6 does not pertain to the given case. As I responded to David, perhaps that's why the author specified the motions in contrast to the usual rolling surging, yawing, swaying, etc. See added note.

Oscillating motions


Explanation:
Measurement of Ship's Motions
The ELECTROLEVEL is an electronic gravity sensing transducer which can be used in various configurations to measure the motions of a ship at sea. This application note examines the accuracy of such measurement and discusses the background to measuring ships motions. A ship at sea is subject to six oscillating motions:
Pitch: angular motion about the ships transverse axis.
Roll: angular motion about the ships longitudinal axis.
Yaw: angular motion in the horizontal plane containing the
projection of the longitudinal axis, about the mean
course.
Surge: fore and aft movement of the C.G. of the ship after
subtracting mean speed.
Sway: transverse movement of the C.G. of the ship measured in the
horizontal plane.
Heave: vertical movement of the C.G. of the ship.


These motions are produced by wave action and evidently depend on the heading and size of the ship with respect to the waves.
Because the ELECTROLEVEL is pendulous device it senses accelerations as well as gravity.
These accelerations cause errors in angular reading.
The magnitude of these errors is examined in the following analysis in which a simple model of ships motion is used to identify the chief causes of error in practical situations.
