Sensitivity of Andean Glaciers to ice-flow parameters in the Parallel Ice Sheet Model [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Mountain glaciers are losing mass rapidly due to anthropogenic climate change. Projections of glacier evolution across the Andes under different warming scenarios have primarily been as part of global scale modelling frameworks, rather than dedicated ...

Strengthening of columnar-grained freshwater ice through cyclic flexural loading

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2020
Systematic experiments reveal that the flexural strength of freshwater S2 columnar-grained ice loaded normal to the columns increases upon cyclic loading.

Genetically Programmed Shape‐Morphing of Engineered Living Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, bacterial and mammalian engineered living materials (ELMs) are presented, in which living cells direct genetically programmed and enzymatically mediated shape‐morphing. The resulting deformation and shape‐recovery can be actuated in a genetically controlled manner by an ELM incorporating out‐of‐equilibrium counteracting biochemical reactions with

Nanorheology of Interfacial Water during Ice Gliding

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2019
The slipperiness of ice is an everyday-life phenomenon, which, surprisingly, remains controversial despite a long scientific history. The very small friction measured on ice is classically attributed to the presence of a thin self-lubricating film of ...

Rheology of ice at the bed of Engabreen, Norway [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2000
AbstractA three-dimensional finite-element model is used to analyze field data collected as dirty basal ice flowed past an instrumented obstacle at the bed of Engabreen, a temperate glacier in northern Norway The ice is modeled as an incompressible power-law fluid, with viscosity , where ΠD is the second invariant of the stretching tensor, and B and n ...

XTRUDE: A Process‐Informed Framework for High‐Fidelity Analysis of Hydrogel Extrusion

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Extrusion performance emerges from the interplay between material properties and processing conditions. XTRUDE (eXTrusion Rheology for Understanding and Defining Extrudability) recreates the extrusion environment with in situ pressure and temperature sensing, enabling characteristic pressure signatures to quantify extrusion‐specific phenomena and ...

Microstructure-based simulations of the viscous densification of snow and firn [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Accurate models for the viscous densification of snow (understood here as a density below 550 kg m−3) and firn (a density above 550 kg m−3) under mechanical stress are of primary importance for various applications, including avalanche prediction and the

Modelling ice mélange based on the viscous-plastic sea-ice rheology

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract. Ice mélange, which is a mixture of sea ice, bergy bits and icebergs, can have a strong influence on the sea-ice–ocean interaction. So far, ice mélange is not represented in climate models as numerically efficient realizations are missing. This motivates the development of an ice-mélange model based on the viscous-plastic sea-ice rheology ...

3D‐Printed Gradient Shape‐Memory Strain Sensors With Rewritable Gauge Factors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed shape‐memory strain sensor combines thermomechanical programming with gradient architectural design. Preset strain rewrites the gauge factor (GF), while the gradient geometry amplifies the response through strain redistribution. Reprogrammable sensitivity enables the same sensor to detect weak pulse signals and monitor large‐amplitude ...

Effects of sea ice model characteristics on Arctic marine primary production

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The Arctic environment is rapidly changing and drastic declines in sea ice extent and thickness have been observed over the past decades. The thinning of the ice pack affects its dynamics and makes it more susceptible to form fractal features such as ...
