MARC recordA comparison of the mass-loading and elastic plate models of an ice field / Vernon A. Squire.
| Title: | A comparison of the mass-loading and elastic plate models of an ice field / Vernon A. Squire. |
| Author(s): | Squire, Vernon A. |
| Date: | 1993. |
| In: | Cold Regions Science and Technology. (1993.), Vol. 21(3) (1993) |
| Abstract: | Compares two most common surface boundary conditions used to represent marginal ice zone through which ocean waves are propagating. Discusses consequences of choosing one or other boundary condition: with no rigidity, wavelength in ice is less than that in open sea, whereas with rigidity typical of ice plate, it is usually greater. This has concomitant effect that waves bend towards normal incidence at entry to ice field in mass-loading theory, but bend away when ice field is assumed to behave as elastic plate, thereby allowing critical angle of incidence beyond which incoming waves cannot enter ice cover. Existing data indicate that critical angle does occur, suggesting that full plate theory may be necessary. |
