Research Structure
SAMCoT’s research groups are divided into
six different Work Packages (WPs):
WP1 – Data Collection and Process Modelling;
WP2 – Material Modelling;
WP3 – Fixed Structures in Ice;
WP4 – Floating Structures in Ice;
WP5 – Ice Management and
Design Philosophy;
WP6 – Coastal Technology.
The organizational structure of each Work Package supports the inter-collaboration among SAMCoT Research
and Industry Partners as well as the international strategy of the Centre. The research strategy of the Centre
as well as the implementation of the activities are closely monitored by the Centre Management Group, which
reports to the EIAC, SAC and Board. In this section, we have furnished information on the main researchers in
each WP, as well as the SAMCoT PhD candidates, Post Docs and Master’s students for each. In addition, visual
examples of their research activities are provided.
