Analysis of Thermally Activated Sacrificial Micro Soft Layers for Reduced Surface–Ice Interface Strength

The prompt removal of ice is crucial to the safe operation of maritime equipment. However, traditional deicing approaches such as steam jets or manual tools are costly in terms of energy consumption and human labor. If the ice interfacial strength can be reduced, the above problems can be much allev...
