To determine the factors that affect the particle size of ice chips and elucidate the impact mechanism of the factors on the particle size of ice chips, an ice cutting test stand was built, the ice chips produced under different drilling conditions are sampled using the cutter with straight cutting edge and full kerf width, and the distribution of particle size of ice chips under various drilling conditions was obtained by screening and weighing methods. Finally, the influencing factors and laws on the distribution of particle size of ice chips were determined. The rake and relief angles of the cutter affect mainly the proportion of ice chips with particle sizes smaller than 0.5 mm. As the rake angle and the relief angle of the cutter increases, the proportion of ice chips with a particle size of smaller than 0.5 mm increases. The rotation speed of the drill bit and cutting depth have an impact on the overall distribution of particle size of ice chips.

Using choice-based conjoint analysis and a conditional logit model with online survey data, we identified five main risk factors influencing shippers: route unavailability rate, delay probability, piracy probability, transport costs, and war conditions, ranked in importance from highest to lowest as war conditions, delay probability, transport costs, route unavailability rate, and piracy probability. Additionally, the risk factors significantly influencing route selection were found to be robust, showing minimal variation across company size, type of trade (import/export), and the nature of the goods transported. Our findings suggest several policy implications. Diplomatic efforts are crucial for safe vessel navigation on the NSR.
