The determination of ice loads on polar vessels and offshore structures is important for ice-resistant design, safe operation, and management of structural integrity in ice-infested waters. Physical model testing carried out in an ice tank/basin is usual...

In order to reduce the cost of navigation training in the waters of ice zones and improve the effectiveness of the training process, a method for simulating sea ice fragmentation in an ice zone navigation simulator is proposed. The Voronoi diagram algori...

Apart from breaking level ice, polar ships can interact with broken ice in various scenarios. In recent years, computational simulation models have increasingly been used for the evaluation of ship operability under broken ice conditions, presenting some...

The real resistance that a ship must face when it is navigating in ice floes is the key factor for knowing the necessary power and the required engine size. The aim of this work is to provide valuable data to help other research in which numerical framew...

When an airgun releases high-pressure gas underwater below an ice plate, it is observed that a bubble is formed rapidly while the ice plate is broken fiercely. In order to study the ice-water-gas interaction during this transient and violent phenomenon, ...

The presence of broken ice in the flow field around a propeller causes severe blade erosion, shafting, and hull vibration. This study investigates the performance of the propeller of a ship sailing in the polar regions under the propeller?ice non-contact...

A simplified numerical model is introduced to predict ice impact force acting on the ship hull in level ice condition. The model is based on ice-hull collision mechanisms and the essential ice breaking characteristics. The two critical ice failure modes,...

In order to assess the strength of the water vapour feedback within Arctic climate change, 15 years of the total column-integrated density of water vapour (TCWV) from the moderate resolution imaging spectrometer (MODIS) are analysed. Arctic TCWV distribu...
