Ice Lifter Marine Structure.

An ice-breaking marine structure capable of reducing ice forces imposed on the structure wherein the structure is substantially vertical and has inclined flights on each side which cause impinging ice sheets to fail in flexure. The flights are inclined upward at an angle to the horizontal to minimiz...
