Book Description
This Volume constitutes the Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium on 'Scaling Laws in Ice Mechanics and Ice Dynamics', held in Fairbanks, Alaska from 13th to 16th of June 2000. Ice mechanics deals with essentially intact ice: in this discipline, descriptions of the motion and deformation of Arctic/ Antarctic and river/lake ice call for the development of physically based constitutive and fracture models over an enormous range in scale: 0.01 m - 10 km. Ice dynamics, on the other hand, deals with the movement of broken ice: descriptions of an aggregate of ice floes call for accurate modeling of momentum transfer through the sea/ice system, again over an enormous range in scale: 1 km (floe scale) - 500 km (basin scale). For ice mechanics, the emphasis on lab-scale (0.01 - 0.5 m) research con trasts with applications at the scale of order 1 km (ice-structure interaction, icebreaking); many important upscaling questions remain to be explored.

Research Trends in Solid Mechanics
Author: U.S. National Committee on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics
Publisher: Pergamon
ISBN:
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
Hardbound. Solid mechanics is a basic scientific discipline which provides the theoretical foundation, experimental support, solution methodology and computational tools for analysis, design, construction, manufacture, and behavior prediction in service of many devices, machines, materials, structures and large complex systems that are essential to the existence and progress of an advanced civilization. It is concerned with both manmade, natural and living solid objects, and with all aspects of their physical behavior that affect their function, integrity or service life expectancy.The contents of this volume offer examples of some of the activities that are currently at the forefront of solid mechanics research, and also illustrate the vast reach of the discipline and of its interactions with other science and engineering endeavors.

Sea Ice in the Arctic
Author: Ola M. Johannessen
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030213013
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 579
Book Description
This book provides in-depth information about the sea ice in the Arctic at scales from paleoenvironmental variability to more contemporary changes during the past and present centuries. The book is based on several decades of research related to sea ice in the Arctic and its variability, sea ice process studies as well as implications of the sea ice variability on human activities. The chapters provide an extensive overview of the research results related to sea ice in the Arctic at paleo-scales to more resent scales of variations as well as projections for changes during the 21st century. The authors have pioneered the satellite remote sensing monitoring of sea ice and used other monitoring data in order to study, monitor and model sea ice and its processes.
