Özet

The problem of ice loads on multiple vertical cylinders of circular cross section in an ice cover of infinite extent is studied. Hydro-elastic waves propagate in the ice cover towards the cylinders which are fixed to the sea bottom. It is a three-dimensional linearized problem with finite water depth. The problem is solved by the hydrodynamic interaction theory of Twersky (1952) and the vertical mode method (Korobkin et al. (2019)). The ice plate is frozen to the cylinders which is modelled by clamped edge conditions. The ice deflection is described by the equation of a thin elastic plate of constant thickness. The flow under the ice is described by the linear theory of potential flows.  Evanescent waves are included in the solution of the problem which correspond to the complex roots of the dispersion relation for hydro-elastic waves. The present results for the forces acting on a configuration of four identical circular cylinders is compared with the numerical results of Ren et al. (2018).
