Theoretical estimation of floating ice sheet deflection caused by the motion of a submerged object
The vertical deflection of floating ice sheets subjected to the movements of an underwater object is the subject of the present theoretical study. Steady deflections are estimated based on theories of small deformation of thin plates and potential flow using Fourier and Laplace transform techniques...

The vertical deflection of floating ice sheets subjected to the movements of an underwater object is the subject of the present theoretical study.

Depending on the problem condition, deflection extremes range between a few millimeters to tens of centimeters. Ice vertical deflections are reduced by an increase in object depth and ice thickness and with a decrease in object speed. Flexural-gravity waves, resembling a Kelvin wake pattern, are formed when the speed of the object is more than a critical speed.
