The NATO-RTO Task Group assessed computer codes for the prediction of ice accretion on aeroplanes which is an important flight safety issue. The following topics were treated: - state of the art - review codes in use or being developed - provide reliability data for regulation and certification - ice shape comparison methods - critical research needs. In order to compare the detail of codes a workshop was held involving experts from various institutions and companies. See also AD-M001 343 non print version with appendices.
