Analyses of Two Ice Class Rules : for The Design Process of a Container Ship

During ice voyages, level ice and iceberg with huge inertia force can cause large deformation and even damage on the ship hull structure. Hence the hull structure for ice voyage requires higher strength than it for open water voyages. A container ship will be re-designed for ice voyages in the thesis. Generally, the ice strength is evaluated in ice class rules. IACS polar class and FSICR are adopted in this thesis. Ice class rules are based on experience and experiment data, but there has been no exact formula or parameters to described the ice properties so far. In other words, the results from ice class rules include uncertainties. In order to improve physical understanding, non-linear FE simulations will be processed after the re-design. In the simulations, the ship has a collision with different ice scenarios. The simulations are carried on ANSYS Workbench Explicit Dynamic using the solver of Auto-dyna. Afterwards, the results from the two designs schemes are compared and analysed.
