A series of model tests has been carried out on downward breaking conical structures using low salinity model ice. Comparison with information in the literature showed that a downward breaking cone experiences lower ice forces than an upward breaking cone. Fixed cones of angles of 15, 30, 45 and 60 deg were tested in 50-mm-thick ice of 60 kPa flexural strength at velocities ranging form 0.01 to 0.5 m/s. The effects of thickness and flexural strength variations were also investigated. Horizontal forces were observed to increase with increasing velocity. Ice thickness variation was observed to have a stronger influence on the vertical forces than on the horizontal forces. Vertical and horizontal forces showed a decrease with decreasing flexur...
