Abstract Granular and columnar sea ice formed random pores containing gas and brine while growing in a polar environment. Building an appropriate microstructure of sea ice model to reveal its material singularities using standard methods is difficult. In this study, we develop a porous sea ice model based on coupled thermos-mechanical peridynamics [1-3] by considering the fluid flow and material transport in pores. The novel features of using the porous sea ice peridynamic model are as follows: (1) To establish the porous sea ice model, the sea ice pore equation is combined with the peridynamic equations.

Abstract As an important maritime hub, Bohai Sea Bay provides great convenience for shipping and suffers from sea ice disasters of different severity every winter, which greatly affects the socio-economic and development of the region. Therefore, this paper uses FY-4A (a weather satellite) data to study sea ice in the Bohai Sea. After processing the data for land removal and cloud detection, it combines multi-channel threshold method and adaptive threshold algorithm to realize the recognition of Bohai Sea ice under clear sky conditions. The random forests classification algorithm is introduced in sea ice identification, which can More >

Abstract Moored structures are suitable for operations in ice-covered regions owing to their security and efficiency. This paper aims to present a new method for simulating the ice load and mooring force on the moored structure during ice-structure interaction with a spherical Discrete Element Method (DEM). In this method, the level ice and mooring lines consist of bonded sphere elements arranged in different patterns. The level ice model has been widely validated in simulation of the ice load of fixed structures. In the mooring line simulation, a string of spherical elements was jointed with the parallel… More >
