A straightforward technique for analysing structural response to dynamic ice action
Offshore structures are occasionally subjected to sustained vibration due to drifting ice sheets crushing against them. In this condition the amplitude of vibration is shown to follow a relationship which takes into account only the ice velocity and the lowest frequency vibration mode of the structu...

Summary: | Offshore structures are occasionally subjected to sustained vibration due to drifting ice sheets crushing against them. In this condition the amplitude of vibration is shown to follow a relationship which takes into account only the ice velocity and the lowest frequency vibration mode of the structure. Based on this relationship, a straightforward technique is proposed for the design of structures subjected to ice-induced vibration. |
