Moored Vessel Station-Keeping in Ice-Infested Waters: An Assessment of Model Test Data for Various Structures and Ship Shapes
A wide range of ice model test data were assembled for the Kulluk, turret-moored drillships, semi-submersibles, and tankers or production vessels connected to loading terminals. These data were analyzed in combination to establish trends for sheet ice conditions and for broken ice conditions, with r...

Summary: | A wide range of ice model test data were assembled for the Kulluk, turret-moored drillships, semi-submersibles, and tankers or production vessels connected to loading terminals. These data were analyzed in combination to establish trends for sheet ice conditions and for broken ice conditions, with respect to ice concentration, thickness, and many other parameters.
