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.
