Introduction
The ice impact forces on a fixed or floating offshore structure are an important structural design consideration in the Arctic region. To predict the impact forces, a knowledge of velocity, acceleration, and location of both ice mass and structure before impact is necessary. These are heavily influenced by the ice conditions, the structure geometry, the hydrodynamic forces, as well as the location of the ice mass relative to the structure.
The hydrodynamic effects of the surrounding water play an important role in the analysis of collisions between ice mass and fixed or movable structure. For instance, hydrodynamic forces cause an ice mass or floating structure to move before the actual collision and consequently affect the impact bodies’ velocities and trajectories. Especially, for small ice masses and bergy bits, these effects are more obvious (Sayeed et al. 2017). This will result in inaccurate predications of absorbed energy and impact forces. Therefore, it is...
