Most merchant ships operating in the cold regions are notable to break ice themselves, they can only navigate in the bro-ken ice, the so-called brash ice channels. Today’s standard re-quires a model test in real brash ice conditions to be carried outand realistic additional resistances to be estimated from this. Theproblem is that they can only be performed at the end of the de-sign process.
