A generalized stress correction scheme for the Maxwell elasto-brittle rheology: impact on the fracture angles and deformations

M Plante, LB Tremblay - The Cryosphere, 2021 - tc.copernicus.org
The Maxwell elasto-brittle (MEB) rheology uses a damage parameterization to represent the
brittle fracture of sea ice without involving plastic laws to constrain the sea ice deformations …

Damaging viscous-plastic sea ice

A Savard, B Tremblay - Authorea Preprints, 2023 - authorea.com
We implement a damage parametrization in the standard viscous-plastic sea ice model to
disentangle its effect from model physics (visco-elastic or elasto-brittle vs. visco-plastic) on …

Deformation lines in Arctic sea ice: intersection angles distribution and mechanical properties

D Ringeisen, N Hutter, L von Albedyll - EGUsphere, 2022 - egusphere.copernicus.org
In Arctic sea ice, the intersection angles between Linear Kinematic Features (LKFs) are
linked to the internal mechanical properties. Sea ice rheological models struggle to …
