Conceptual thoughts on continuum damage mechanics for shallow ice shelves

We consider a theory for shallow ice shelves that includes an isotropic damage variable. A zeroth-order shallow-shelf approximation allows a simple yet consistent treatment of both ice dynamics and damage evolution. We find that the damage variable (like temperature) has, in general, to vary with de...
