MARC recordA physical model of ice overthrust during the break-up of intact river-ice covers / Michael N. Demuth, Terry D. Prowse.
| Title: | A physical model of ice overthrust during the break-up of intact river-ice covers / Michael N. Demuth, Terry D. Prowse. |
| Author(s): | Demuth, Michael N. Prowse, Terry D. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| Publisher: | Saskatoon: National Hydrology Research Institute |
| In: | Northern hydrology : selected perspectives. Proceedings of the Northern Hydrology Symposium 10-12 July 1990, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. (1991.), |
| Abstract: | Discusses range of characteristics and processes that could lead to irregularities or flaws in river-ice sheet that would, in turn, lead to overthrust flexural failure along brash-ice fronts. Also discusses levels of downstream forcing required to initiate such failure. Shows that overthrust flexural-failure processes induced by cover variability require significantly lower downstream forcing than those required to fail homogeneous cover in elastic buckling. |
