DESCRIPTION:<span>Co-author: Emilian Parau		(University of East Anglia)   
      <br></span><span><br>A numerical model for phase-resolved simulation 
 of nonlinear ocean waves propagating through fragmented sea ice is propose
 d. This model solves the full time-dependent equations for nonlinear poten
 tial flow coupled with a nonlinear thin-plate formulation for the ice cove
 r. The coefficient of flexural rigidity is allowed to vary spatially so th
 at distributions of ice floes can be directly specified in the physical do
 main. Two-dimensional simulations are performed to examine the attenuation
  of solitary waves by scattering through an irregular array of ice floes.<
