Marine Technology Research

In this project I will be working with Aalto university’s Marine Technology research group at the Aalto ice tank. The purpose of such an ice tank is to explore the function of arctic marine structures in pack ice conditions. For example, this could include structural testing of oil and gas facilities or model testing of ice-breaking vessels.

My work will be in the field of data measurement processes and equipment design. It will therefore involve research regarding ice tank functionality, experimental design, and ice tank equipment. In other words, the project that I will undertake will include literature review, hands-on use of experimental equipment, research into state-of-the-art ice tank techniques, and possible data analysis and CAD design.
