Finite Viscoelastic Modeling of Ice Shelves Using Glen's Flow Law and Depth‐Dependent Material Properties

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Ice shelves are floating seaward extensions of glaciers that form where land‐based ice flows into the ocean. Recent observations suggest that their mechanical behavior is suitably described by a viscoelastic Maxwell model, as this framework captures both the instantaneous elastic response and the time‐dependent viscous flow of ice.

TIDAL DISSIPATION COMPARED TO SEISMIC DISSIPATION: IN SMALL BODIES, EARTHS, AND SUPER-EARTHS [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2012
While the seismic quality factor and phase lag are defined solely by the bulk properties of the mantle, their tidal counterparts are determined both by the bulk properties and self-gravitation of a body as a whole. For a qualitative estimate, we model the body with a homogeneous sphere and express the tidal phase lag through the lag in a sample of ...

Finescale parameterizations of turbulent dissipation [PDF]

, 2014
This article (1) reviews and clarifies the basic physics underpinning finescale parameterizations of turbulent dissipation due to internal wave breaking and (2) provides advice on the implementation of the parameterizations in a way that is most ...

Iceberg‐Generated Waves From SWOT: Disintegration of Iceberg A‐76A in the Southern Ocean

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Amid rising global temperatures, icebergs are calving more often and drifting into open waters. Their disintegration processes can trigger energetic surface gravity waves that propagate away from the iceberg remain poorly documented. This study presents an analysis of 12 iceberg‐generated wave fields associated with the disintegration of ...

Tidal Amplitudes in the Magellanic Cloud Population of Heartbeat Stars

The Astrophysical Journal
Eccentric ellipsoidal variable (EEV) or “heartbeat” variable stars are stars whose light curves show pulses once per orbit due to ellipsoidal distortions from strong tides at periapse and other proximity effects like irradiation.

Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...

Estimates of M₂ tidal energy dissipation from TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter data [PDF]

Most of the tidal energy dissipation in the ocean occurs in shallow seas, as had long been recognized. However, recent work has suggested that a significant fraction of the dissipation, perhaps 1 TW or more, occurs in the deep ocean.

In Search of Decay: An Analysis of Transit Times of Hot Jupiters in Main-sequence and Post-main-sequence Systems

The Astrophysical Journal
Tidal interactions are one of the primary drivers of orbital evolution for massive planets with short orbital periods. Tidal dissipation within host stars can cause the orbits of such planets to decay.

Invasive saltmarsh removal linked to reduced geomorphic resilience of a tidal flat

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2026.
Abstract Large‐scale removal of the invasive saltmarsh plant Spartina alterniflora has become a major restoration intervention along China's coast, yet its biogeomorphic consequences remain unclear. Using pre‐removal in situ sediment dynamics observations and five annual topographic surveys spanning removal, we show that S.

Tidal Migration of Exoplanets around M Dwarfs: Frequency-dependent Tidal Dissipation

The Astrophysical Journal
The orbital architectures of short-period exoplanet systems are shaped by tidal dissipation in their host stars. For low-mass M dwarfs whose dynamical tidal response comprises a dense spectrum of inertial modes at low frequencies, resolving the frequency
