The effect of specimen size on the bending strength of alluvium reinforced ice / Wilfrid A. Nixon, L.J. Weber.
Title: | The effect of specimen size on the bending strength of alluvium reinforced ice / Wilfrid A. Nixon, L.J. Weber. |
Author(s): | Nixon, Wilfrid A. Weber, L. J. |
Date: | 1990. |
Publisher: | New York: American Society of Mechanical Engineers |
In: | Proceedings of the Ninth International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering - 1990 - presented at ... Houston, Texas, February 18-23, 1990. Vol. 4. Arctic/polar technology. (1990.), |
Abstract: | Alluvium-reinforced ice provides economic building material for Arctic regions. Three-point bend tests showed that size affects sample strength. Provided extreme fibre strain-rate is kept constant, strength decreases with increasing sample size. Weibull analysis of data provides good description of observed size effect. |
