Author(s): Brooks, Larry D.
Date: 1985.
Publisher: Ottawa: National Research Council of Canada. Associate Committee on Geotechnical Research
In: National Research Council of Canada. Associate Committee on Geotechnical Research. Technical Memorandum. (1985.), Vol. 136 (1985)
Abstract: Describes simple relationship between maximum possible draft and above-water dimensions. Out of 296 icebergs, only 25 violated hypothesis. Shapes also modelled which increase draft when rolled to different orientations; these satisfy hypothesis.
