Measurement of the fracture toughness of polycrystalline bubbly ice from an Antarctic ice core
The critical fracture toughness is a material parameter describing the resistance of a cracked body to further crack extension. It is an important parameter for simulating and predicting the breakup behavior of ice shelves from the calving of single icebergs to the disintegration of entire...
