Solitary Waves Beneath an Ice Sheet
A load moving on top of an ice sheet can generate waves. The present study is restricted to load speeds close to the critical speed corresponding to the minimum of the dispersion curve. The consequences of this minimum, which are well-known in the context of capillarygravity waves, are analyzed in t...
