Abstract: A total of 110 first-year sea ice samples from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, were tested in unconfined and confined constant strain rate compression. All of the tests were performed in the laboratory ...

Abstract: An angle-ply laminated plate is optimized with the objective of minimizing its weight subject to maximum deflection and buckling constraints. The plate has an initial deflection the shape of ...

Abstract: A series of 222 uniaxial constant-strain-rate compression tests was performed on vertical multi-year pressure ridge sea ice samples. A preliminary analysis of the effect of structure on the ...

Abstract: The stresses created within an elastic model material (gelatin) by a laterally loaded, rigid, finite pile are studied using three-dimensional photoelasticity. Cases of both slip and no-slip conditions at the pile/gelatin ...

Abstract: Data are presented on the variation of ice structure, salinity, and density in multi-year pressure ridges from the Beaufort Sea. Two continuous multi-year pressure ridge cores are examined as ...

Abstract: Thirty-six constant strain-rate uniaxial tension tests were performed on vertically oriented multi-year pressure ridge samples from the Beaufort Sea. The tests were performed on a closed-loop ...

Abstract: Fifty-five constant-strain-rate triaxial tests were performed on verticaly oriented multi-year pressure ridge samples from the Beaufort Sea. The tests were performed on a closed-loop electrohydraulic ...

Abstract: Over two hundred unconfined compression tests were performed on vertical ice samples obtained from 10 multi-yr pressure ridges in the Beaufort Sea. The tests were performed on a closed-loop ...
