A New Plastic Design Approach for the Vertical-Side-Plating Thickness of Ice-Strengthened Ships Suffering from Ice Floe Impacts

Ice-strengthened ships inevitably suffer from ice floe impacts during navigation in icy regions. Under some extreme-ice-impact loadings, the ship structure will experience plastic deformations. The magnitude of plastic deformation is highly correlated with the ice floe-impact energy level. During mo...
