Slip Line Field Solutions as an Approach to Understand Ice Subgouge Deformation Patterns
ABSTRACT In the Arctic where drifting ice contacts the sea floor, oil and gas pipes need to be buried at a certain depth beneath the sea floor to avoid damage caused by ice scour and the soil plastic deformation induced by ice scour. For a safe design, knowledge is required about the depth and magni...

ABSTRACT In the Arctic where drifting ice contacts the sea floor, oil and gas pipes need to be buried at a certain depth beneath the sea floor to avoid damage caused by ice scour and the soil plastic deformation induced by ice scour.

This paper presents the centrifuge testing results of subgouge deformation and examines the viability of using slip line field solutions as a theoretical approach to estimate the subgouge deformation induced by ice scouring. For centrifuge testing, variables included ice keel speed, undrained shear strength of soil and ice keel scour depth. The soil deformations were determined by image processing of video camera data; and the horizontal and vertical loads were measured using load cells.
