Ice loading on a multifaceted conical structure

An upward breaking cone is a common shape proposed for arctic offshore structures. The conical shape will induce ice bending failure, and hence, reduce the horizontal ice forces on the structure. In order to save on fabrication costs, it may be desirable to approximate the smooth conical surface by...
