The experiments included resistance tests both with simplified hull forms and a conventional ship model with different friction coefficients. The brash ice channels were made either from common soft model ice or solid freshwater ice cubes. The tests results suggest that the friction coefficient correction given in the FSICR guidelines is applicable for hull forms having a vertical bow form (large buttock angle) when those are tested in typical (relatively soft) model ice. By contrast, when brash ice tests are conducted with solid freshwater ice cubes, the correction given by the rules does not appear directly applicable and further research is needed. This paper focuses on the tests in brash ice channel made from solid ice cubes.</p> |
