Multi-layered cement-hydrogel composite with high toughness, low thermal conductivity, and self-healing capability [PDF]
The inherent quasi-brittleness of cement-based materials, due to the disorder of their hydration products and pore structures, present significant challenges for directional matrix toughening.

Steady-State Motion of a Load on an Ice Cover with Linearly Variable Thickness in a Channel
The paper considers the visco-elastic response of the ice cover in a channel under an external load moving with constant speed along the center line. The channel has a rectangular cross-section with a finite depth and width.

Motion of a submerged body in a near-surface water environment
This study considered the motion of a submerged body near the free surface of a liquid and a liquid covered with ice cover, both theoretically and experimentally. Mathematically, the body was modelled using the source–sink system.

Interaction of a Flexural-Gravity Wave with a Vertical Rigid Plate Built in a Floating Elastic Plate
The linear two-dimensional problem of interaction between an hydroelastic wave propagating along an elastic floating ice plate with built-in vertical rigid plate is studied. The fluid under the ice is inviscid and incompressible.

Search for correlations of high-energy neutrinos and ultrahigh- energy cosmic rays [PDF]
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory has recently found compelling evidence for a particular blazar producing high-energy neutrinos and PeV cosmic rays, however the sources of cosmic rays above several EeV remain unidentified.

Quiet eye predicts goaltender success in deflected ice hockey shots† [PDF]
AbstractIn interceptive timing tasks, long quiet eye (QE) durations at the release point, along with early tracking on the object, allow performers to couple their actions to the kinematics of their opponent and regulate their movements based on emergent information from the object's trajectory.

Deflection of ice cover caused by an underwater body moving in channel [PDF]
Deflections and strains in an ice cover of a frozen channel caused by an underwater body moving under the ice with a constant speed along the channel are studied. The channel is of rectangular cross section, the fluid in the channel is inviscid and incompressible. The ice cover is clamped to the channel walls.

The effect of ice shelf rheology on shelf edge bending [PDF]
The distribution of pressure on the vertical seaward front of an ice shelf has been shown to cause downward bending of the shelf if the ice is assumed to have vertically uniform viscosity.
