Multi-leg structures in ice - examining global loading uncertainties
The ISO 19906 Arctic Offshore Standard (2010) represents a great advancement for standards as they pertain to Arctic engineering. However, uncertainties remain for a number of topic areas, including global loading on multi-leg structures in ice. These uncertainties include the effects of sheltering,...
