Abstract

The steady motion of amphibian aircushion vehicles over water covered with continuous ice is studied. The ice sheet is simulated by a viscoelastic ice plate. An analysis is made of the effect of the aspect ratio of the vehicle, the depth of the water reservoir, and ice characteristics on the wave resistance of the vehicle and the speed of the vehicle at which the wave resistance is maximal.
