Discussion of Different Model Approaches for the Flow Behavior of Ice
Abstract Ice of Antarctic ice shelves is assumed to behave on long‐term as an incompressible viscous fluid, which is dominated on short time scales by the elastic response. Hence, a viscoelastic material model is required. The thermodynamic pressure is treated differently in elastic and viscous mode...

Summary: | Abstract Ice of Antarctic ice shelves is assumed to behave on long‐term as an incompressible viscous fluid, which is dominated on short time scales by the elastic response. Hence, a viscoelastic material model is required. The thermodynamic pressure is treated differently in elastic and viscous models. For small deformations, the elastic isometric stress for ν → 0.5 gives similar results to those solving for pressure in an incompressible laminar flow model. A viscous model, in which the thermodynamic pressure is approximated by an elastic isometric stress, can be easily extended to viscoelasticity. (© 2016 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) |
