Description
Summary:Abstract In connection with the use of ice as a building material, it is interesting to study its strength characteristics. To increase the strength of ice, the ice matrix was reinforced by adding various materials of natural origin. The greatest significance in this study is the assessment of the stress-strain state of ice composites. The possibility of the photoelasticity method applimentation to obtain stress fields in ice composites was considered. Due to the lack of data about the piezo-optical properties of ice, we performed numerous studies in this direction. As a result of research, it was found that it is not possible to quantify the piezo-optical properties of ice, because ice has a low optical sensitivity, high brittleness, and the ability to melt at room temperature. It is possible to qualitatively characterize stress fields, identify stress concentrators, and describe the effect of reinforcing materials on the stress state of the ice matrix using the photoelasticity method. The use of ice-composite materials in the Arctic is a promising direction.
