Moving Loads on Ice Plates is a unique study into the effect of
vehicles and aircraft travelling across floating ice sheets. It
synthesizes in a single volume, with a coherent theme and
nomenclature, the diverse literature on the topic, hitherto
available only as research journal articles. Chapters on the nature
of fresh water ice and sea ice, and on applied continuum mechanics
are included, as is a chapter on the subject's venerable history in
related areas of engineering and science. The most recent theories
and data are discussed in great depth, demonstrating the advanced
state of the modelling and experimental field programmes that have
taken place. Finally, results are interpreted in the context of
engineering questions faced by agencies operating in the polar and
subpolar regions. Although the book necessarily contains some
graduate level applied mathematics, it is written to allow
engineers, physicists and mathematicians to extract the information
they need without becoming preoccupied with details. Structural,
environmental, civil, and offshore engineers, and groups who
support these industries, particularly within the Arctic and
Antarctic, will find the book timely and relevant.
