Abstract

Ice field measurements around the concrete cylindrical lighthouse in the Gulf of Bothnia were carried out in the middle of March 1984 employing sensors of different design and purposes. Relatively low ice activity during the period made possible the use of linear ice/structure interaction models for evaluation of the ice loads transferred to the lighthouse. Moreover, linear constitutive material relations could be used when dealing with ice rheology. In the present analysis the information from the strain sensors embedded into ice has been interpreted into forces on the basis of hereditary viscoelasticity.
