Creep of Ice under Low Stress
Uniaxial compressive creep tests on fine-grained polycrystalline ice indicate that secondary strain-rate is proportional to σ 1.8 , where σ is applied stress, for the range 0.1 < σ < 0.5 kgf/cm 2 (10 < σ < 50 kN/m 2 ). On the basis of the present tests, earlier results su...

| Summary: | Uniaxial compressive creep tests on fine-grained polycrystalline ice indicate that secondary strain-rate is proportional to σ 1.8 , where σ is applied stress, for the range 0.1 < σ < 0.5 kgf/cm 2 (10 < σ < 50 kN/m 2 ). On the basis of the present tests, earlier results suggesting linear viscous behaviour at low stress are believed to be invalid. |
