Evaluation of ice induced loads on ships in compressive ice
Ice covered sea areas was given more attention during the last decade due to the increased natural resource exploitation and new transport routes. Merchant ships with a long parallel midbody section aren't suitable for winter conditions. Compressive ice can cause pressure to the side of the shi...

Ice covered sea areas was given more attention during the last decade due to the increased natural resource exploitation and new transport routes. Merchant ships with a long parallel midbody section aren't suitable for winter conditions. Compressive ice can cause pressure to the side of the ship and ship can get stuck in ice. Compressive ice is one of the greatest hazards for maritime traffic in winter conditions, yet little is known about the effects and forces involved. Within project called SAFEWI\N ice model tests were conducted in the ice basin of Aalto University in compressive ice field. Tests included six test series with varying ice thickness and compression levels. The model adopted in the tests was a bulk carrier with a bulbous bow and a long parallel midship section. In this thesis the loads on the ship model in compressive ice has been studied. Measurement data are gathered from the load panels at the midship, bow shoulder and load sensors on the pusher plates for level ice tests and closing channel tests. Further, natural sea ice is highly heterogeneous and causes high scattering in any measured values. This study seeks to find the maximum line loads caused by compressive ice field and compare those with ones calculated by ISO code to verify ISO code reliability.
