Soft matter physics of the ground beneath our feet

A Voigtländer, M Houssais, KA Bacik, IC Bourg… - Soft matter, 2024‏ - pubs.rsc.org
The soft part of the Earth's surface–the ground beneath our feet–constitutes the basis for life
and natural resources, yet a general physical understanding of the ground is still lacking. In …

Ocean wave blocking by periodic surface rolls fortifies Arctic ice shelves

P Nekrasov, DR MacAyeal - Journal of Glaciology, 2023‏ - cambridge.org
The Ward Hunt and Milne ice shelves are the present-day remnants of a much larger ice
shelf that once fringed the coast of Ellesmere Island, Canada. These ice shelves possess a …

Theoretical stability of ice shelf basal crevasses with a vertical temperature profile

NB Coffey, CY Lai, Y Wang, WR Buck… - Journal of …, 2024‏ - cambridge.org
Basal crevasses threaten the stability of ice shelves through the potential to form rifts and
calve icebergs. Furthermore, it is important to determine the dependence of crevasse …

Wrinkling composite sheets

M Suñé, C Arratia, AF Bonfils, D Vella, JS Wettlaufer - Soft Matter, 2023‏ - pubs.rsc.org
We examine the buckling shape and critical compression of confined inhomogeneous
composite sheets lying on a liquid foundation. The buckling modes are controlled by the …

Bragg scattering of surface-gravity waves by an ice shelf with rolling surface morphology

YV Konovalov - Annals of Glaciology, 2025‏ - cambridge.org
The propagation of elastic-flexural–gravity waves through an ice shelf is modeled using full
three-dimensional elastic models that are coupled with a treatment of under-shelf sea-water …
