Ice-structure interaction

Workshop theme

Fundamental models of physical phenomena taking important role in ice – structure interactions including phase changes, recrystallization, ice rheology, friction, permeability, super-cooling and pre-melting
Icing of aircrafts, ships and offshore structures
Thermally induced loads on structures due to the interaction with ice and frozen soils
Ice loads on fixed offshore structures and vibrations
Dynamic positioning of floating structures in ice conditions
Ice-ship interaction
Impact of icebergs and ice ridges keels in seabed and subsea facilities
Advantages and disadvantages of numerical methods for simulations of ice-structure interactions

Interaction of ice with structures appears as an important process in numerous engineering applications including icing of structures (planes, turbines, cables, ships etc.), thermally induced loads on structures from ice and frozen soils, and mechanical loads on offshore and coastal structures due to the contact interaction. The physical mechanisms of ice-structure interactions are physically related to phase changes, ice micro-structure, the rheology and strength of ice, properties of contact interaction of ice with different materials, properties and behaviour of structures under the loading, and the driving forces applied to the ice when it interacts with structures. Understanding of the physical phenomena and proper formulation of mathematical models describing ice-structure interactions are necessary for adequate numerical simulations with useful input for industry. The workshop program includes lectures and seminars. Lecturing will be performed by well-known scientists experienced in experimental investigations of physical and mechanical properties of ice, laboratory and field studies of ice actions on different structures, formulation of mathematical models and numerical simulations according to industry needs. Seminars are organized for students with mathematical background to gain experience with mathematical models and conceptions used for the description of ice-structure interactions and ideas for their further development.
