To investigate the seismic performance of a wind turbine that is influenced by both the ice
load and the seismic load, the research proposes a numerical approach for simulating the …

In this paper, the dynamic responses and energy absorption characteristics of aluminium
honeycomb sandwich panels (AHSPs) under ice wedge impact are numerically and …

With the climate change, polar sea ice is diminishing. This, on one hand, enables the
possibility for eg, Arctic shipping and relevant resource exploitation activities, but on the …

Engineering structures may probably suffer from the brittle fragmenting impact such as the
low velocity impact of iceberg collision and floating sea ice in the field of polar ships and …

While society benefits from Arctic shipping, it is necessary to recognize that ship operations
in Arctic waters pose significant risks to people, the environment, and property. To support …

Floe ice fields are expected to replace level ice to be the most common environment for
future polar sea transportation under the long-term trend of global warming. In this study, the …

Abstract Following the International Code for Ships Operating in Polar Waters (Polar Code),
ships operating in ice-covered polar waters must comply with an appropriate Polar Class …

Local ice pressure refers to the ice pressure exerted on a very small area of a structure
during ice failure. The existence of high-pressure zones may lead to local deformation and …

To ensure the safety of maritime operations in polar waters, the IMO enforced the
International Code for Ships Operating in Polar Waters (Polar Code) in 2017. To address ice …

Ice ridges and icebergs generally pose a major threat to both ships and offshore facilities
that operate in Polar regions. In many cases these features will govern the structural design …
