A generalized stress correction scheme for the Maxwell elasto-brittle rheology: impact on the fracture angles and deformations

<p>The Maxwell elasto-brittle (MEB) rheology uses a damage parameterization to represent the brittle fracture of sea ice without involving plastic laws to constrain the sea ice deformations. The conventional MEB damage parameterization is based on a correction of super-critical stresses that b...
