Ice block breakage within deforming ice rubble
This paper studies ice block breakage during shearing of ice rubble by using discrete element method simulations with a block breakage model. In the case of ice rubble, breakage is the tendency of ice blocks failing due to loads acting on them. Block breakage often plays an important role in force t...
