MARC recordPreliminary measurements of terminal crack velocity in ice / B.L. Parsons, J.B. Snellen, B. Hill.
| Title: | Preliminary measurements of terminal crack velocity in ice / B.L. Parsons, J.B. Snellen, B. Hill. |
| Author(s): | Parsons, B. L. Snellen, J. B. Hill, B. |
| Date: | 1987. |
| In: | Cold Regions Science and Technology. (1987.), Vol. 13(3) (1987) |
| Abstract: | Measurements made to determine if bifurcation of cracks propagating in first-year, shorefast sea ice in Allen Bay, near Resolute, Cornwallis Island, NWT, Canada, is possible mechanism influencing fragment size. Bifurcation was not observed in any samples, probably because of low crack velocity (20 m s⁻¹). Concludes that fragment size in ice is, instead, consequence of various stress fields developed. |
| Notes: | Cold Regions Science and Technology. Vol. 13(3) :233-238 (1987). |
