... formations associated with a number of problems. The non-stationary process of ice breaking at the contact of the edge of drifting ice field and IRP leads to dangerous vibrations and dynamic forces. Extreme resonant oscillations can cause not only violations of the regular functioning of IRP, but also...

... of ice loads from drifting hummocky features and level ice fields on the reinforced gravi- ty based structures in Piltun-Astohsky and Lunsky fields offshore Sak- halin are investigated. The authors made a comparative analysis of ice loads on various types of gravity based structures in conditions...

... severe ice conditions, it is necessary to consider a possible effect from the drifting ice features, such as level ice fields, layered or hummocky ice fields, individual hummocks, ridges of hummocks, grounded hummocks, icebergs, ice masses from icing-up, combinations thereof, etc. The offshore platforms...

... with heavy ice regime, it is necessary to consider possible effect of drifting ice features, such as the level ice fields, layered and hummocky ice fields, single hummocks, ridges of hummocks, grounded hummocks, icebergs, icing up masses of ice, their combinations, etc. Analyzed results of examinations...
