| Summary: | The book contains a collection of state-of-the-art papers on ice-structure interaction, delivered at an international conference sponsored by the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) and the International Association of Hydraulic Research (IAHR) in St. John's, Newfoundland, in August 1989. The book contains the latest research in related areas of ice mechanics such as creep and viscoelasticity, fracture and damage, friction and the properties of broken ice masses, as well as papers on design methodologies for arctic structures; there are three important papers on ships interacting with ice. Several different and new approaches to the subject of calculating ice forces on structures, as well as new experimental data on the strength and fracture of ice are presented. The concepts of Damage Mechanics are applied to ice for the first time, and the role of friction in the crushing behaviour of ice is explored. |
