A semi-empirical model to predict ship resistance in level ice based on Lindqvist's model is presented. This model assumes that contact between the ship and the ice is a case of symmetrical collision, and two contact cases are considered. Submersion force is calculated via Lindqvist's formula, and the crushing and breaking forces are determined by a concept of energy consideration during ship and ice impact. The effect of the contact coefficient is analyzed in the ice resistance prediction. To validate this model, the predicted results are compared with model test data of USCGC Healy and icebreaker Araon, and full-scale data of the icebreaker KV Svalbard. A relatively good agreement is achieved. As a result, the presented model is recommended for preliminary total resistance prediction in advance of the evaluation of the icebreaking performance of vessels.

Recent icebreaking ships need to be designed to enhance not only icebreaking capability but also turning ability. For the evaluation of ice resistance induced by an icebreaking hull form, HHI (Hyundai Heavy Industries) has developed the hybrid empirical formulas (Park et al., 2015) by considering the geometrical hull shape features, such as waterline and underwater sections. However, the empirical formulas have inherent limits to the precise estimation of the icebreaking and turning ability because the breaking process and the resulting pattern are ignored. For this reason, numerical calculation in time domain is performed to predict the icebreaking process and pattern. In the simulation, varying crushing stress according to velocity vectors and contact areas between hull and ice is newly introduced. Moreover, the simulation results were verified by comparing them with the model test results for three different bow-first icebreaking models.

To navigate in ice-covered waters, the ice-breaking process is required. The ice-breaking mode depends on material properties of sea ice and ice conditions. The ice-breaking mode is classified into ramming and continuous ice-breaking. The ramming is effective on large ice features, such as thick ice ridge and icebergs, and the continuous ice-breaking is on level ice. In general, the impact time duration of crushing or bending on ice sheets is from 0.2 to 1.0 second. However, impact duration in ramming will be increased. The Korean ice-breaking research vessel ARAON conducted her research voyage in the Antarctic sea during the winter of 2012. The IBRV ARAON measured strain in ramming and continuous ice-breaking. Strain gauge signals were recorded during the planned ice-breaking performance and the unplanned ice transits in heavy ice conditions. The aim of this study is to investigate the ice load signals measured in ramming processes under the heavy ice condition. Based on the time history of the signals, a raising time, a half-decaying time and time duration were investigated and compared with the previous study which was suggested the five profiles of the ice load signals.

구형 관입시험에 의한 얼음의 균열을 연구 하였다. $-10^{circ}C$에서 S2 기둥얼음의 시편(152mm X 152mm X 152mm)에 stainless 강으로 된 구(지름 25.4mm)로 하중을 가하였다. 구형indentor는 얼음 시편의 장축인 기둥방향에 수직으로 하중을 가하였으며 이때 변위율은 0.038mm/s로 하여 단조증가 하중 시험을 하였다. 하중을 가하기 시작하면 indentor 하부에서 crushing 이 발생하고, 하중이 증가함에 따라서 방사선 균열 또는 횡균열이 성장하여 splitting 또는 spallation이 발생하였다. 단조증가 하중 때와 동일한 indentor를 사용하여 하중 및 비하중율 0.5KN/s로 맥박하중을 가할 때 이들 방사선 균열 및 횡 균열이 발생 성장하였다. 첫 맥박 하중의 크기는 1KN으로 하고 그 뒤 계속 이어지는 시험은 맥박 하중의 크기를 증가시킨 뒤 행하였으며 균열 길이는 맥박과 맥박 사이에서 계측 하였다. 기타 취성고체에서 관찰 되었던 것과 같이 방사선 균열 및 측면균열의 길이는 impression 반지름과 하나의 지수법칙이 성립함을 보여주었다.
