A Finite Element Model for Compressive Ice Loads Based on a Mohr-Coulomb Material and the Node Splitting Technique
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a finite element model for the simulation of ice–structure interaction problems, which are dominated by crushing. The failure mode of ice depends significantly on the strain rate. At low strain rates, ...
A Finite Element Method-Based Potential Theory Approach for Optimal Ice Routing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Shipping in ice-covered regions has gained high attention within recent years. Analogous to weather routing, the occurrence of ice in a seaway affects the selection of the optimal route with respect to the travel time or ...
A Rubber Bag for Liquid Cargo to Improve Ship Collision Resistance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Collisions and grounding accidents of ships, but also the failure of the hull-integrity, can lead to oil leakage. Examples are the Rena in 2011, the Hebei Spirit in 2007, and the much known accident of the Prestige in 2002. ...
Guidance for Material Selection Based on Static and Dynamic Mechanical Properties at Sub-Zero Temperatures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is well known that material properties undergo significant changes with temperature. In order to meet extreme environmental requirements for ships and offshore structures operating in Arctic regions, the effect of ...
Investigation of Nonlinear Wave–Ice Interaction Using Parameter Study and Numerical Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper investigates the question of the existence of nonlinear wave–ice interaction with the focus on nonlinear wave propagation and dispersion of waves. The scope of this investigation is to provide a better understanding ...
An Object-Oriented Modeling Approach to Virtual Prototyping of Marine Operation Systems Based on Functional Mock-Up Interface Co-Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an object-oriented modeling (OOM) approach to model development of marine operation systems, specifically the hydraulic systems of marine cranes. Benefited from the rapid development of computation ...
Bowtie Analysis without Expert Acquisition for Safety Effect Assessments of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Estimating the safety effects of emerging or future technology based on expert acquisitions is challenging because the accumulated judgment is at risk to be biased and imprecise. Therefore, this semiquantitative study is ...
Ice Pressure Prediction Based on the Probabilistic Method for Ice-Going Vessels in Inland Waterways
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With increasing need to utilize inland waterways (IWW), the design of IWW vessels gains attention both from a transport efficiency and an emission control point of view. The primary challenge is to estimate the ice pressure ...
