Model study of cable-moored conical platform / W.A. Nixon, R. Ettema, M. Matsuishi, R.C. Johnson.
Title: | Model study of cable-moored conical platform / W.A. Nixon, R. Ettema, M. Matsuishi, R.C. Johnson. |
Author(s): | Nixon, W. A. Ettema, R. Matsuishi, M. Johnson, R. C. |
Date: | 1993. |
In: | Journal of Cold Regions Engineering. (1993.), Vol. 7(1) (1993) |
Abstract: | Objectives of study were to determine effects of stiffness of mooring system, as well as dimensions and speed of ice, on forces and motions that cable-moored conical platform would encounter while in continuous mode of breaking large moving ice sheet. Presents results of tests in ice tank, performed with model-scale platform and sheets of urea model ice. |
Notes: | Journal of Cold Regions Engineering. Vol. 7(1) :12-31 (1993). |
