Peak ice loads and buckling in ice-inclined structure interaction

Abstract

Our earlier statistical studies on interaction of ice with an inclined structure suggest that ice loads only depend on a relatively small number of parameters. The complexity of the interaction process yields a largely scattered peak ice load values, which makes the data analysis of load data challenging. In this paper, which is a summary of the results observed by Ranta
et al. (2018b), we present peak load observations from a large number of simulations and show that a simple buckling load model, having only two ice parameters, explains the peak loads well. The results highlight the importance of buckling phenomenon in ice-structure interaction processes.
