VARIATION OF SOME MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF POLAR SNOW, CAMP CENTURY, GREENLAND.

The present study analyzes the results of a large number of measurements of the unconfined compressive strength of polar snow from Camp Century, Greenland, where it was possible to obtain samples with densities varying over essentially the complete natural density range for polar snow and ice. The l...
