  2. 1. Thermal ice pressure on structures in ice covers

    Author : Lennart Fransson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : A method to estimate thermal ice pressure is proposed. Temperature-history and stress-history in a confined ice sheet heated at the surface is illustrated with numerical examples. Material parameters for columnar lake ice has been evaluated from classical laboratory experiments and a field program presented here. READ MORE

  4. 2. Nonlinear Numerical Simulations of Interactions Between Ice Rubble and Structure

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ice mechanics; ice rubble; sea ice ridges; punch through test; shear box test; friction coefficient; cohesive element method; smoothed particle hydrodynamics; continuous surface cap model; numerical modelling; Byggkonstruktion; Structural Engineering;

    Abstract : This research is focused on three distinct but interconnecting topics:1) investigation of physical and mechanical properties of ice rubble, 2) material modelling of ice rubble, 3) numerical simulation of the interaction between ice rubble structure interaction. large scatter in the values of physical and mechanical properties of ice rubble can be seen in the literature due to non-standardised methods.
