{"product_id":"recent-advances-on-safe-maritime-spyros-hirdaris-9783036519197","title":"Recent Advances on Safe Maritime Operations under Extreme Conditions","description":"\u003cp\u003eIncreased activity in the Arctic involves hazards such as a harsh environment, especially the ice cover and cold temperature, remoteness, a lack of infrastructure, and lack of information about bathymetry, among other challenges. Ice cover is also highly variable and dynamic, with increasing variation in the future; due to the changing effects of the world climate, the ice conditions on all ice-covered areas are also under dynamic change. This book presents a collection of papers which focus on scenario-based risk management for polar shipping and risk-based guidelines. Topics discussed by internationally renowned authors involve the description of ice conditions, ship-ice contact and associated loading, numerical models\/idealizations, definitions of limit states for ice-strengthened structures, and holistic risk\/reward analyses for polar navigation. From an overall perspective, this work contributes toward international research efforts to safeguard maritime operations in ice-infested waters. This book may be of interest for maritime industry practitioners, regulators, academics, researchers and postgraduate students. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Spyros Hirdaris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 303651919X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783036519197\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.56d","brand":"Spyros Hirdaris","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43945786867967,"sku":"9783036519197","price":55.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_286a734e-2b09-48ed-b721-e04b8d2b20ed.jpg?v=1681509794","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/recent-advances-on-safe-maritime-spyros-hirdaris-9783036519197","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
