摘要: The problem of the creep deformation floating ice shelves is considered. solved using Glen’s law for and Nye’s relation steady-state (the analogue Levy-Miles in plasticity theory). Good agreement obtained between an observed rate at Maudheim Antarctic that predicted from results tests made by Glen.
