Abstract

Offshore structures are occasionally subjected to sustained vibration due to drifting ice sheets crushing against them. In this condition the amplitude of vibration is shown to follow a relationship which takes into account only the ice velocity and the lowest frequency vibration mode of the structure. Based on this relationship, a straightforward technique is proposed for the design of structures subjected to ice-induced vibration.
