The new model is derived from a different perspective so that it is able to respond to the influence of fluid flow and shortcomings in existing ice-induced vibration models. The effect of a flowing fluid on ice-induced vibrations has not been investigated in past research inspite of its significant contributions to the dynamics of both structure and ice. By combining the equation of a one degree-of-freedom oscillator with Morison's equation, the flow effect is added to the structural response and its influence is examined. The deficiencies of the existing IIV models are investigated by reproducing two existing models, and demonstrating the need for a new model. The new model, the impact IIV model, which is developed from the conservation of momentum is completed by the inclusion of the flow effect on the structure.113 p.enEngineering, Mechanical.Thesis
