Finite element formulation of viscous sea ice model

The steady drift of sea ice in the Arctic Basin has been calculated by using the Finite Element Method, assuming that the ice is a viscous material. The Arctic Basin is discretized into 9 x 13 square elements of size 250 km by 250 km. The constitutive relations proposed by Glen 1970 have been used i...
