Numerical Modelling of Ice Interaction with Rubble Mound Berms in the Caspian Sea
Numerical modelling of sea ice is a useful tool in predicting ice rubble formation around offshore and coastal structures. Such models can capably predict rubble height and extent, allowing engineers to pinpoint “problem” scenarios for structures where ice interaction, and its potential for extensiv...
