Abstract
Strength problems of ships in waves and in ice are discussed.These
include a general approach to ship strength problems in open waters,
determinations of continuous and transient wave loads and calculation of
structural response.Special features of multihull vessels are presented, too.
Basic principles of the determination of ice loads on ship hull and on
propulsion machinery are presented as well as measurements of these loads.The
updating of the new Finnish-Swedish ice class rules is described.An estimation
of ice resistance on the basis of full-scale and model-scale tests as well as
the progress in the development of a new FG model ice are presented.
