2、OADS MONITORING SYSTEMS .2011 Foreword Foreword This Guide provides requirements for the installation of, and the information to be provided by, Ice Loads Monitoring Systems fitted on ice-classed ABS vessels. These systems are intended as an aid to the Master and navigating officers when a vessel is

3、 operating in ice infested waters so that appropriate action can be taken to minimize the likelihood of the vessel sustaining structural damage from interaction with the ice. The Ice Loads Monitoring Systems specified by this Guide extend from basic monitoring systems to sophisticated, integrated sy

4、stems, the selection of which is left to the Owner. The information provided in the Guide is intended to assist the Owner in selecting the most appropriate system for a vessel based on the vessels probable operating parameters. The Guide describes the Ice Loads Monitoring process and the procedures

5、for collecting, recording, processing, evaluating, and presenting the data in a manner that permits the Master and or navigating officer to better measure vessel performance in ice and determine if remedial action should be taken. The monitoring systems specified in the Guide can assist in identifyi

6、ng when the vessel is operating in ice in a manner that could lead to structural damage or failure by providing early warning to the navigator when the performance parameters relating to vessel strength are approaching the preset allowable levels. It is emphasized that the scope of the ice loads mon

7、itoring system selected for a specific vessel, the nature of the display and the form and aims of data processing are decisions that should be made by the vessels Owner in conjunction with the system supplier as appropriate. If requested, ABS is able to provide technical assistance to an Owner consi

8、dering installing an ice loads monitoring system based upon the information contained in this Guide. ABS considers that it would be of mutual benefit to ABS and the Owner of an ABS-classed vessel that is fitted with an ice loads monitoring system for the recorded in-service data to be made available

9、 to ABS for evaluation for the purpose of further refining these requirements and improving safety, in accordance with the ABS mission. An ABS-classed vessel that is fitted with an ice loads monitoring system that complies with the requirements of this Guide may, at the request of the Owner, be assi

10、gned the appropriate notation for entry in the ABS Record. The requirements of this Guide are applicable to all types and sizes of ice-class vessels. The requirements are applicable both to new construction and to the retrofitting of an approved ice loads monitoring system to existing vessels. The e

11、ffective date of this Guide is the first day of the month of publication. ABS welcomes comments and suggestions for improvement of this Guide.

19、ion 1: General SECTION 1 General 1 Application This Guide is applicable to new construction and existing ABS-classed vessels for which any of the ice load monitoring system notations indicated in Subsection 1/9 of this Guide have been requested by the applicant. The ice loads monitoring system is in

20、tended to: Provide to the bridge near real-time information of the measured data while transiting in ice. Warn the vessels personnel that the near real-time parameters specified in Subsection 1/5 are approaching permissible levels so that corrective actions may be taken. Warn the vessels personnel t

21、hat during the voyage the value(s) of these parameters could be equal to or higher than corresponding permissible level(s) in the near future based on recent impacts. The permissible level of the selected parameter(s) should be derived from applicable recognized criteria. While the ice loads monitor

22、ing system is intended to aid in the operation of a vessel, it is not a substitute for the judgment and the responsibility of the Master to take appropriate corrective action when operating the vessel. The Guide also recommends onboard prediction of the short-term extreme value(s) of parameters spec

23、ified in Subsection 1/5. The term “Guide” in this document denotes the ABS Guide for Ice Loads Monitoring Systems, and “Rules” denotes the ABS Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels or the ABS Rules for Building and Classing Steel Vessels Under 90 Meters (295 Feet) in Length, as applicable. 3

24、 Scope This Guide describes the general conditions and procedures for assessing, evaluating and recording structural conditions of a vessel navigating in ice by measuring and monitoring parameters related to the structural response of the vessel. This Guide addresses “active” monitoring which provid

25、es near real-time onboard operational support. The type of monitoring system, the methods of recording and processing data and the derivation of warning signals are largely decisions that should be made by the vessels Owner, in conjunction with the systems supplier as appropriate. The general recomm

26、endations given in this Guide are intended to assist the Owner in selecting, installing and using the system for collecting, processing, and evaluating the necessary data for predicting vessel behavior in ice. 5 Terminology Performance. Performance defined by the measurement, calculation or both of

27、one or more parameters which provide information about the vessels structural condition and/or response when in ice. Parameters. Conditions and properties that could indicate that a structural defect(s) and/or abnormal vessel behavior may occur and that corrective actions are advisable. The most imp

28、ortant parameters for ice loads are local stresses in the icebelt structure. Monitoring System. The system that monitors parameters and compares them with permissible levels that were established using recognized applicable criteria.

47、ere requested, the notation ILM may be assigned to a vessel having a basic ice condition monitoring system to monitor local hull stresses caused by ice loads in compliance with this Section. The basic ice condition monitoring system is to display local stresses from strain gauges and to warn the ves

48、sels personnel that stresses are approaching levels at which corrective action is advisable. 3 Local Hull Stress Monitoring due to Ice Loads 3.1 Stresses during Transit in Ice A display of the local critical stresses associated with typical icebelt structure is to be available on the bridge to monit

49、or these stresses during operations in ice to minimize the possibility of vessel overloading and the overstressing and buckling of hull structures. An alarm is to be provided to indicate when the critical stresses exceed 80% of the material yield stress. Critical stresses are defined as stresses in areas of the icebelt structure that will have the highest stresses during ice impact loading. Depending upon the impact location, the magnitude and extent of the load, and the loading condition of the vessel, critical stresses may occur in different parts of the structure. To
