摘要: Numerical simulation of a floater in ice-infested waters can be performed using physics engine. This software dynamically detect contacts and calculate the contact forces three-dimensional space among various irregularly shaped bodies, e.g. ice floes. Previously, engines were successfully applied to simulate floaters ice. However, limited attention was paid criteria for selecting particular engine broken-ice conditions.In this paper, four publicly available (AgX Multiphysics, Open Dynamics Engine, PhysX Vortex) are compared terms integration performance detection accuracy. These two aspects assumed most important simulating broken Furthermore, access code, documentation quality level technical support evaluated discussed. The main conclusion is that each has its own strength weaknesses none perfect. revealed discussed paper.Copyright © 2012 by ASME
