Numerical Simulation of Dynamic Ice Forces on Offshore Structures
In recent decades China’s growth has produced a need for greater oil supplies. Offshore drilling in the Bohai Sea has developed in response to this need. However, this region is subject to annual winter sea ice which can damage offshore structures. Therefore, a numerical simulation was developed usi...
