      Floating glacial ice features of various sizes pose a substantial threat to the structural integrity of offshore structures in ice-prone regions. Relatively small ice feathers, e.g., bergy bits and growlers, are a major concern because they are more difficult to detect by marine radars and perform concurrent ice management operations, especially in extreme sea states.<p> <p>This two-part companion ...
    • Performance Quantification of Icebreaker Operations in Ice Management by Numerical Simulations 

      Bjørnø, Jon; Skjetne, Roger; van den Berg, Marnix; Lu, Wenjun; Lubbad, Raed; Løset, Sveinung (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-15)
      The paper addresses the problem of quantifying and assessing the effectiveness of icebreaker operations in ice management (IM) using a high-fidelity simulator. The numerical model includes an accurate geometric representation of an icebreaker, a cylindrical protected structure, and a synthetic ice environment. A set of key performance indicators (KPIs) are defined and proposed to quantify the ...
