Abstract

The effect of ice cover on the oscillations of water in a two-dimensional constant-depth basin within the linear theory of long waves is considered. The ice cover is treated as thin elastic plate in the presence of compressive force. The ice is fastened hardly to a shore. The eigenfrequencies and eigenfunctions of free oscillations (seishes) are obtained. The forced oscillations of fluid and ice cover under the action of a moving disturbance of atmospheric pressure are investigated. The input data are taken to have values typical of Lake Baikal. The time dependence of total mechanical energy of the fluid is calculated for different velocities of pressure motion. The variations in ice-bending stresses are determined and the causes of shore-ice breaking are explained.
