Abstract
Two highly skewed controllable pitch model propellers were tested in both open water and ice covered water in an ice tank. Both propellers had the same skew and root angle of attack but were manufactured with two different pitch distributions. The open water and ice experiments were both done at four different pitch settings, each over a range of advance coefficients. The ice strength and the depth cut into the ice by the propeller were varied in the tests. The main aims of the experiments were to measure the effects of these variables on blade loads, in addition to their effects on shaft loads, and to compare the effect of pitch distribution on these. Shaft loads were measured using conventional dynamometry. Loads on one blade were measured using a six component hub-mounted blade dynamometer designed and built for these tests. The blade dynamometer is described and shaft and blade load measurements are presented and discussed. It was discovered that in certain conditions the individual blade experienced bending moments, thrust and torque loads that were on the order of ten times the mean cycle load during the ice milling event.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
