    • Ice thickness estimates for design of structures 

      Høyland, Knut Vilhelm; Hornnes, Vegard; Salganik, Evgenii; Samardžija, Ilija (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The level ice thickness is perhaps the most important ice property in both engineering and geophysics. Ice action from level ice scales almost linearly with ice thickness and the level ice thickness gives the mode in ice ...
    • Ice-Ice and Ice-Steel Friction in Field and in Laboratory 

      Sukhorukov, Sergiy (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2013:300, Doctoral thesis, 2013)
      Friction is one of the key phenomena during the interaction of ice with offshore structures and ships, ice rafting and ridging processes, and the brittle compressive failure of ice. Therefore, knowledge of the ice friction ...
    • Ice-induced vibrations under continuous brittle crushing for an offshore wind turbine 

      Wang, Qi (Master thesis, 2015)
      Offshore wind structures located in ice infested waters are subjected to actions from moving ice and forces are generated when a drifting ice crushes against the structure. The main purpose of this Master s thesis is to ...
