Abstract
In this text a brief overview of how to determine loads
acting on azimuthing thrusters in ice conditions is
given. Ice load calculation for ship propulsion is
considered important due to increasing commercial
interest and activity in Arctic waters and ice
conditions, like traffic through Northwest Passage.
Commercial interest calls for optimized structural
design, and for that purpose, reasonable understanding of
structure expected loading is required.
