Computer Simulation of Ice Control with Thermal Bubbler Plumes: Point Source Configuration
Response of Concrete Island Drilling System to Ice Impact Loading
The lateral stability and load/deformation characteristics of the Concrete Island Drilling System structure under ice impact loading conditions were studied. The 300-foot-square (91.5-meter...
Transport of Coarse Material in Low Energy Beach Environments
The Prediction of Sea and U.S. Great Lakes Ice Conditions by the Digital Ice Forecasting and Analysis System (DIFAS)
Mitigation of Ice Effects at Hydroelectric Intake Structures
The design and operation of hydroelectric facilities throughout the northeast United States and Canada must contend with winter conditions for a large part of their yearly operation. During...
Small-Scale Hydro Power in Cold Climates
Small-scale hydro power is mostly developed under more pressing economical conditions than large hydro. It is therefore of great importance that the operation and maintenance costs are...
Frazil Ice Control Using Electromechanical Cibrators and Ice-Resistant Coatings
Two methods, using electromechanical vibrators and ice-resistant coatings, were studied in a small-scale test conducted at the U. S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory...

Arctic Slope Protection: Considerations for Ice
Fracture Control for Arctic Vessels and Structures
Materials used for construction of Arctic structures and vessels are exposed to low ambient temperatures, high local ice loads and intermediate to high loading rates. All these factors...
Utilization of Ground Penetrating Radar to Conduct Sediment Surveys of Frozen Reservoirs
The ground penetrating radar (GPR) system consisted of a control unit, antenna, recorder, a power supply on a sled towed by a snowmobile. A 120 Mhz antenna was utilized and gave excellent...
Journal of Cold Regions Engineering
The Journal of Cold Regions Engineering publishes practice- and research-oriented articles from any area of civil engineering that is substantially related to cold regions. Topics include ice engineering,...
Sea-Ice Influence on Arctic Coastal Retreat
A Mathematical Model for River Ice
Several computer models for simulating river ice conditions have been developed (Petryk, 1986). All of these models simulate frazil ice production, and the progression, erosion and melting...
Composite Resistance to Flow With an Ice Cover
Recent data collected on several rivers in Michigan suggest, with only an ice cover present, that Manning's roughness ratio is constant at n//R equals 0. 65. If other ice...
Paleoflood Studies in Colorado
Paleoflood hydrology is the study of botanic, sedimentologic and geomorphic flood evidence remaining in a valley. Paleoflood studies in the Colorado foothills and mountains have been used...
