| Description |
This was a Joint
Industry Project (JIP) to assess the influence of the crushed ice forces between the
structure and the moving ice floe on the load transferred to the structure. This project
improved our understanding of the behavior of crushed ice under stress to develop
constitutive relationships for use in the evaluation of load distribution on the
structure. |
