An Ice Thickness-Tensile Stress Relationship for Load-Bearing Ice.
The bearing capacity of a floating ice sheet is of considerable interest. The pattern of ice thickness vs tensile stress for a fixed load and fixed ice properties was examined and showed some constant relationships. It proved possible to completely describe the ice thickness-tensile stress pattern i...
