As a long-term energy source, tidal heating in subsurface oceans of icy satellites can
influence their thermal, rotational, and orbital evolution, and the sustainability of oceans. We …

Despite evidence for plumes on Jupiter's moon Europa, no surface features have been
definitively identified as the source of the plumes to date. Furthermore, it remains unknown …

Water ice Ih exhibits brittle behavior when rapidly loaded. Under tension, it fails via crack
nucleation and propagation. Compressive failure is more complicated. Under low …

The orbital and internal evolution of the ice‐covered ocean worlds orbiting Jupiter and
Saturn are coupled, leading to time‐varying thicknesses of their ice shells. As the ice …

Active eruptions from the south polar region of Saturn's~ 500-km-diameter moon Enceladus
are concentrated along a series of lineaments known as the 'tiger stripes',, thought to be …

Systematic experiments reveal that the flexural strength of freshwater S2 columnar-grained
ice loaded normal to the columns increases upon cyclic loading. Specifically, over the range …

The impact of ice on structures is a strong concern, in particular for aeronautical or space
crafts that are strongly damaged by the impact of atmospheric ice, and more specifically by …

We determined the frictional strength and stability of polycrystalline ice and ice‐ammonia to
constrain fault behavior on icy satellites such as Enceladus and Europa. Friction …

We catalog the global inventory of Europa's cycloids, arcuate fractures whose paths have
been linked to diurnal tidal stress, and use the locations and orientations of their cusps to …

Increasing fetch as sea ice retreats with global warming is increasing the amplitude of ocean
waves, motivating the need for a better understanding of the impact of episodic flexing on …
