Abstract
In order to produce model ice sheets having targeted physical properties in accordance with the law of similitude, the ice model basin of Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering carries out a series of processes such as cooling, seeding, freezing, and tempering. Performance in ice field of ice going ships or marine structures is evaluated from model tests in ice conditions made out of a model ice sheet such as level ice, pack ice, brash ice, and ice rubble field, etc. In this study, we investigated effects of micro-bubble layers and seeding of ice nuclei included in the process generating a model ice sheet on change in physical properties of thickness, density, and flexural strength.
