Bonded Discrete Element Simulations of Sea Ice With Non‐Local Failure: Applications to Nares Strait

Abstract The discrete element method (DEM) can provide detailed descriptions of sea ice dynamics that explicitly model floes and discontinuities in the ice, which can be challenging to represent accurately with current models. However, floe‐scale stresses that inform lead formation in sea ice are di...
