Experimental Study on IRV Ramming Artificial Model Ice by Chunyu Guo, Chengsen Zhang, Chunhui Wang, Chao Wang

“…This paper develops a scale-ratio brittle model of ice to simulate thick, level ice and predicts the ice penetration distance and bow load of an icebreaking research vessel (IRV) model at different speeds. The test results show that the penetration distance of the scoop-shaped bow IRV increases with the ramming speed and the average and extreme values of the contact load increase with the increase in the speed. …”
