Experimental Study on IRV Ramming Artificial Model Ice
When the icebreaker sails in the polar region, it adopts continuous and ramming icebreaking operations. When the ice condition exceeds the design working condition, it uses the ramming icebreaking method to advance.

Numerical Investigation of Global Ice Loads of Maneuvering Captive Motion in Ice Floe Fields
During escort and convoy operations, icebreakers are often required to maneuver to open up channels or adjust routes due to the prevalence of ice floe conditions in Arctic routes. This study aimed to investigate the global ice load characteristics of the
