Changes in the flexural strength of ice under radiation decay. Paper presented at the 8th Northern Res. Basins Symposium/Workshop (Abisko, Sweden - March 1990) / T.D. Prowse, M.N. Demuth, H.A.M. Chew.
Title: | Changes in the flexural strength of ice under radiation decay. Paper presented at the 8th Northern Res. Basins Symposium/Workshop (Abisko, Sweden - March 1990) / T.D. Prowse, M.N. Demuth, H.A.M. Chew. |
Author(s): | Prowse, T. D. Demuth, M. N. Chew, H. A. M. |
Date: | 1990. |
In: | Nordic Hydrology. (1990.), Vol. 21(4-5) (1990) |
Abstract: | Although reductions in strength with temperature are well known, those due to internal radiative melt are less known. Series of experiments were conducted on pond in spring 1989 to determine changes in flexural strength, porosity and optical properties of floating ice. Test data support existing theoretical models of strength reduction due to porosity development in columnar-grained ice. Experimental methods and results with respect to flexural testing, porosity determinations and radiation energy balance are discussed. |
