Modelling water wave overwash of a sea ice floe

Mathematical models of ocean surface waves travelling through the sea ice covered ocean and impacting the ice cover have been developed for over 40 years now.

Description
Summary:Mathematical models of ocean surface waves travelling through the sea ice covered ocean and impacting the ice cover have been developed for over 40 years now. The kernel of the models is a model of water waves interacting with a solitary ice floe. The ice floe is conventionally modelled as thin floating elastic plate. Water motions are conventionally modelled using potential flow theory.
