Application of discrete element method (DEM) to compute ice loads on structures is a widely accepted approach, where the equations of rigid body motions are solved for all ice pieces in the computational domain. In most ISI simulations, the ice zone is assumed to be resting on a static water foundation omitting the hydrodynamic effects (added mass, water drag, wave damping) of the interacting bodies. This assumption can introduce erroneous results to simulations of the floating ice floes behavior, which in turn will incur uncertainties in planning ice management activities.\u0000 In this paper, a smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code is coupled with a three-dimensional DEM model to take the hydrodynamic effects of the interacting bodies including the ice pieces into account. The ice zone is modeled as discrete elements, which allows computing interaction forces by considering contact laws. The water foundation is modeled using smooth particles, which are modelled with the Naiver-Stokes equations.\u0000 Several applications of ship and offshore structures interacting with level ice and pack ice are simulated. A scenario of an offshore supply vessel operating in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) that is subject to wave forces is also simulated to show how this approach can be used for modelling complex real-world problems. This scenario is unique in a sense that it yields a multi-physics solution, where ice-structure-wave are all included in a single CFD simulation as a fully coupled analysis. The cost of the simulation is significantly reduced by running the computations on a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) instead of a typical CPU workstation. Some of the initial results of ice-structure interactions are presented in this paper and a reasonable agreement with reduced scale model test results are found.","PeriodicalId":422752,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Mon, November 05, 2018","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115663736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tested specimens are composed of three different coatings: an ice protection coating (IPC), a medium bonding coating (MBC), and an anti-fouling coating (AFC). The abrasion event between ice and coatings was carried out at the ambient temperature of near 0°C, and the surface roughness, and frictional coefficient were measured before and after the abrasion test. In addition, the Ethylene glycol/ Aliphatic detergent (EG/AD) model ice is standard model ice in the KRISO ice model basin and its mechanical properties are similar with the properties of the EG/AD/S model ice was used in this study. The large friction measurement device we used in this study can move up to 2 m, and measures the friction force of the plate over the ice and makes ice abrasion event with model ice. The correlation between the roughness and the coefficient of friction was derived as ice abrasion event progresses. In case of the IPC, the surface roughness increases as the ice abrasion test increases, therefore, a frictional resistance is also bigger and bigger. However, the results for the MBC and the AFC are different because the surface roughnesses were not pretty much changed according to the ice abrasion and the frictional resistances are independent on the ice abrasion. This study can contribute to the development of ice abrasion test method.","PeriodicalId":422752,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Mon, November 05, 2018","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121773650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this treaty, Pope Alexander VI, divided the world beyond Europe between Spain and Portugal, effectively cutting off northern European access to China and the Spice Islands.\u0000 Almost immediately the King of England funded exploration of alternative routes and in 1497-98, John Cabot made voyages of discovery to the East Coast of N. America and Greenland. He is credited with the discovery of Newfoundland on one of these voyages.\u0000 Cabot was followed by a long line of others who explored for the NW passage and who have left their names in the geography of the north. Frobisher, Davis, Hudson, Baffin, Franklin, M’Clintock, and M’Clure all attempted to find a sea route from the Atlantic to the Pacific.\u0000 Further, Drake and Cook centuries apart attempted to find the Pacific end of the Passage without success. The passage was not successfully transited until Amundsen did so over a three-year period completing his transit in 1906, in his ship GJOA, but Larsen in the RCM schooner ST.

These Arctic regions are remote, very difficult to access in general and sometimes only seasonably accessible. Our prudent and responsible Arctic Operations require regional-reconnaissance exploration, diligent monitoring of environment such as current state of vegetation, temporal changes of terrain, water drainage system and lakes. Finally, we also need very detailed logistical-planning of field operations. Remote sensing imagery and its derived ancillary products demonstrably improved all these aspects of our Arctic Operations.\u0000 For Arctic Operations, remote sensing data consisted of optical satellite and aerial imagery at various spectral and spatial resolutions, high resolution LIDAR data for digital elevation and digital surface models and synthetic aperture radar imagery (SAR). A combination of in-house and commercial software was used to ingest and process these data. The optical imagery was processed and enhanced using various spectral combinations and high pass filtering to generate the highest possible spatial-resolution for each sensor. Classic neural networks analysis was used to classify the optical imagery for vegetation. The SAR imagery was calibrated (for all polarizations) and geometrically corrected to remove layover effects. The processed optical and SAR imagery, LIDAR and ancillary products were co-registered and imported into a GIS system for final analysis and applications.\u0000 The optical imagery provided information about surface feature such as lake outlines, general drainage, active channels in Colville River, general lake ice conditions, classification of vegetation types etc. The LIDAR data were used to generate slope maps (for arctic vehicles), general topographic conditions and field operations. The SAR imagery was used to monitor surface conditions when optical imagery was not available during the Arctic night conditions. SAR imagery was also used to calculate the ice thickness proxy maps for eventual field operations. All of these products contributed directly to our environmental baseline studies, improved our field operation efficiency and general safety of our Arctic Operations.\u0000 For a practicing engineer (individual or team) The remote sensing data and derived products for Arctic Operations were made available via GIS system. This allowed easy integration with other data layers as well as a common background for all different disciplines to monitor progress and to contribute their learnings and ideas to the entire team.","PeriodicalId":422752,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Mon, November 05, 2018","volume":"418 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116685921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is naturally applicable to map and monitor icebergs and sea ice due its ability to capture images day or night, as well as through cloud, fog and various wind conditions. There are several notable examples of its use to support operations, including Grand Banks, Barents Sea, offshore Greenland and Kara Sea.\u0000 New constellations of satellites and the increasing volume of satellite data becoming available present a new paradigm for ice surveillance, in terms of persistence, reliability and cost. To fully extract the value of the data from these constellations, automation and cloud-based processing must be implemented. This will allow more timely and efficient processing, lowering monitoring costs by at least an order of magnitude. The increase in data persistence and processing capability allows large regions to be monitored daily for ice incursions, thus increasing safety and efficiency during offshore operations in those regions.\u0000 The process of automating SAR-based iceberg surveillance involves creating a process flow that is robust and requires limited human intervention. The process flow involves land-masking, target detection, target discrimination and product dissemination. Land masking involves the removal of high-clutter land from the imagery to eliminate false detection from these locations. Target detection usually involves an adaptive threshold to separate true targets from the background ocean clutter. A constant false alarm rate (CFAR) is a standard technique used in radar image processing for this purpose. Target discrimination involves an examination of the distinct features of a target to determine if they match the features of icebergs, vessels or other ‘false alarms’ (e.g., marine wildlife, clutter). The final stage is the production of an output surveillance product, which can be a standard iceberg chart (e.g., MANICE) or something that can be ingested into a GIS system (e.g., ESRI shapefile, Google KML).\u0000 The target discrimination phase is one of the most important phases because it provides feedback to operations about the presence of targets of interest (icebergs and vessels). The authors have used computer vision techniques successfully to train target classifiers. Standard techniques usually result in classifier accuracies of between 85%-95%, depending on the resolution of the SAR (higher resolutions produce more accurate results) and the availability of multiple polarizations. To see if new machine learning techniques could be applied to increase classifier accuracy, a dataset of 5000 ship and iceberg targets were extracted from Sentinel-1 multi-channel data (HH,HV). The images were collected in several regions (Greenland, Grand Banks, and Strait of Gibraltar).

Synthetic Aperture Radar and optical imagery from polar orbiting satellites can provide valuable information about sea ice and presence of icebergs both on a local and regional scale. The sea ice information extracted from satellite imagery is used together with weather data for vessel navigation in or near the ice or for increased safety and reduced risk during critical operations.\u0000 Kongsberg Satellite Services (KSAT) has ordering, downlink and processing capabilities for all the commercial and free SAR satellites in orbit today. SAR satellite imagery from these sources can, in addition to be used for detection and monitoring of sea ice, also be used for large scale environmental monitoring (oil spill detection) and increased maritime domain awareness (vessel detection). StormGeo is a leading weather risk provider for operations in Arctic, and has a strong focus on delivering weather decision support to marine operations.\u0000 For the end-user performing ice analysis, satellite imagery can be used in addition to information such as local weather forecasts and ice information extracted from external sources. For efficient ordering of satellite imagery in ice management operations, it is important that the end-user have access to satellite tasking information such as potential temporal and spatial coverage, tasking deadlines and order status. In addition, the end-user must be able to access the relevant data as fast as possible after satellite acquisition.\u0000 KSAT and StormGeo have in cooperation with Viking Supply Ships developed an end-to-end service integrating relevant ice-information and interfaces for satellite ordering, imagery access and weather information. The service is accessed through the StormGeo GUI, \"Vortex,\" which serves as a robust and powerful tool for information access and ice management analysis.\u0000 The service development has been done in the MULDIARCOS (Multi-mission Data and Information Services for Arctic Operations) project, which has been partly funded by ESA under the Integrated Application Promotion program.","PeriodicalId":422752,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Mon, November 05, 2018","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125236809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fundamentals of the method are given, including contact detection and forces calculation. Artificial brash ice channels are created in the simulation domain by the so-called floating-up technique. Hull geometry is introduced into the model, handling non-convex bodies as composites of convex bodies. Hydrostatic properties are calculated according to the actual draft, pitch, and roll angles. In order to calibrate the parameters of the code, a standard cylinder experiment is simulated and the results are compared with the experimental model test results. Graphical output of the simulation is also compared with underwater camera footage. General behavior of the ice particles is identical in the vicinity of the structure. However, ice loads on the structure exhibit some discrepancies. Simulation of an Ice Class Tanker was also carried out, and the results were compared with experimental model test values and under water videos. In this case, ice loads tend to be higher than expected. However, particle behavior near hull is very satisfactory. The cause for high ice loads is identified to be deficiencies in modelling the behavior of far field ice particles in the current tool. The simulation tends to overestimate the particle motions in far field due to the deficiencies in the implemented friction model (Cundall-Strack Friction). The current tool is suitable for obtaining qualitative results on ships navigating in brash ice channel in the early design stage; especially to visualize the ice particle flow around ship hull and identify possible concentration of ice particles especially around appendages.","PeriodicalId":422752,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Mon, November 05, 2018","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125967076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The preliminary results from an investigation into the usage of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) for surveying and monitoring icebergs are presented.

The sensor packages (cameras, tracking devices, accelerometers and ground penetrating radar) were commercial products that have been modified for this study and, when required, mountings and delivery mechanisms have been designed and manufactured to integrate the system together.\u0000 Fieldwork was performed during the 2017 iceberg season in a near-shore environment (Bonavista, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada) aboard a survey vessel and, in 2018, from an operational supply vessel offshore Newfoundland and Labrador. The field campaigns were conducted in parallel with an iceberg profiling system that uses an integrated multibeam sonar and LiDAR system to generate composite (topside and subsurface) iceberg reconstructions. These reconstructions can be compared with the results obtained from the photogrammetry and the radar survey.\u0000 During the 2017 program, iceberg imagery for photogrammetry was acquired and GPS tracking devices were deployed onto icebergs and sea-ice. The longest iceberg track obtained was 21 days. For the 2018 campaign, further photogrammetric data was collected and ground penetrating radar surveys of icebergs were performed. The photogrammetry topside reconstructions and the draft estimates from the ground penetrating radar produced results comparable to measurements from the iceberg profiling system.\u0000 This project has explored the capability of UAVs to deliver sensor packages onto icebergs, and to take aerial measurements over and around them.
