| Description |
The objective was to determine
the stresses which are generated in an ice sheet as the flow acts on an arctic offshore
structure. This project used the methodology developed in Project
No. 50. to measure the stresses which are built-up in an ice flow as it moves
against the structure. From these stress measurements, the total global force which acts
against the structures can be estimated. |
