Estimating and Mapping Extreme Ice Accretion Hazard and Load Due to Freezing Rain at Canadian Sites
International Journal of Disaster Risk Science, 2023 The ice accretion load in Canadian structural design codes is developed based on an operational ice accretion prediction model. In the present study, three models are employed to predict the ice accretion amount on a flat surface and horizontal wire at ...

Subglacial Lake Vostok (Antarctica) accretion ice contains a diverse set of sequences from aquatic, marine and sediment-inhabiting bacteria and eukarya. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Lake Vostok, the 7(th) largest (by volume) and 4(th) deepest lake on Earth, is covered by more than 3,700 m of ice, making it the largest subglacial lake known.

Analysis of galloping response in ice-coated transmission conductors under wind loads. [PDF]
PLoS ONEConductor galloping is a low-frequency, large-amplitude vibration phenomenon induced by the combined action of ice accretion and wind loads, which poses severe threats to power grid safety. For 500 kV transmission lines in Xinjiang, a strain-displacement

Ice accretion compositions in ice crystal icing
International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2023 Ice crystal icing is a major hazard in aviation from the perspectives of aerodynamic deterioration, flight safety and operability. To counter this challenge, existing ice prediction tools require more accurate modeling of sticking efficiency of glaciated ice crystals on heated substrates. As part of the present study, icing wind tunnel experiments have

Ice Accretion on Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle—A Review Study
Drones, 2022 Ice accretion on commercial aircraft operating at high Reynolds numbers has been extensively studied in the literature, but a direct transformation of these results to an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) operating at low Reynolds numbers is not ...

In situ quantification of experimental ice accretion on tree crowns using terrestrial laser scanning. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In the eastern hardwood forests of North America ice storms are an important disturbance event. Ice storms strongly influence community dynamics as well as urban infrastructure via catastrophic branch failure; further, the severity and frequency of ice ...
