• Large-scale shear test of brash ice 

      Patil, Aniket; Zhaka, Vasiola; Sand, Bjørnar; Laue, Jan; Cwirzen, Andrzej (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      A large-scale shear apparatus has been originally developed and built to test the mechanical properties of coarsegrained material. It was used to evaluate the shear behaviour of brash ice. The brash ice blocks were collected ...
    • Simulation of brash ice behaviour in the Gulf of Bothnia using Smoothed Particle 1 Hydrodynamics formulation 

      Patil, Aniket; Sand, Bjørnar; Fransson, Lennart; Bonath, Victoria; Cwirzen, Andrzej (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The repeated passage of ships through ice-infested waters create a field of broken ice pieces. The typical size of the broken ice pieces is generally <2.0 m. This area might be referred to as a brash ice field. The movement ...
