A Case Study of the Wind Impact on Ship Ice-sticking
Journal Title: TransNav, the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 4
Abstract
In the paper, the impact of wind on a ferry sailing in ice field is described and analysed. Two ice-sticking events on the Gulf of Finland are taken for the case study. The wind, especially its direction, is stated as an important factor to entrap a vessel in the ice. The wind blowing across the vessel longitude axis caused both the ships to stick.
