“…It is calculated that the corresponding longitudinal stresses for 3mm and 5mm thickness of ice sample are 1.96 MPa and 1.37 MPa respectively, and shear stresses for each load are 41.7 Pa and 32.1Pa accordingly. It is found that maximum longitudinal stresses are in reasonable proximity of the reported values of the tensile strength of ice [28]. The failures in 3 mm and 5 mm ice samples are shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13.…”

“…Stress more than the tensile strength will cause ice to fracture. The tensile strength of ice has been reported to be between 1 MPa to 1.5 MPa [28]. Loads responsible for this amount of stresses are given below: Maximum Longitudinal Stress across the thickness of a 3 mm ice sample under a load of 1000-1400 is 1.080-1.512MPa; Maximum Longitudinal Stress across the thickness of a 5 mm ice sample under a load of 2600-3900g is 1.016-1.523MPa.…”

Abstract.A study of the strength and deformation properties of freshwater ice under compression, tension and shear in a wide range of strain rates (10 −4 − 3 · 10 3 s −1 ) and temperatures of −5 • C, −20 • C, −40 • C and −60 • C was performed. Static stressstrain curves of ice under compression were obtained on which the identified strength properties of ice as well as compressive modulus. To determine the mechanical properties of ice at high-speed loading the Kolsky method was used with various embodiments of split Hopkinson bar. The deformation curves were obtained at various loading conditions. Thereon breaking points were defined as well as their dependence on the strain rate and temperature. Also static and dynamic strength properties of ice at splitting and circular shear were defined. Increase in the dynamic strength properties upon the static ones for all loading conditions was marked.

The dynamic compressive behavior of ice is investigated using a large-sized (37 mm in diameter) modified aluminum split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) with pulse shaper at the strain rate from 500 s -1 to 1200 s -1 . A series of relatively stable experimental results of dynamic compressive strength versus strain rate and a linear fitting curve have been obtained by controlling data scatter within 25%. The composition of incident wave has been discussed. The effects of pulse shaper diameter and velocity of striker bar have been tested. The properties and principles of incident wave in different stage has been elaborated when using pulse shaper. A theoretical analysis of pulse shaper and bar size effects on the rising time of incident wave has been conducted. Results show the thickness of pulse shaper is proportional to the rising time. Enlarging the diameter and reducing the velocity of the striker bar could increase the rising time and suppress the dispersion. The diameter and wave impedance of bars also contribute to the rising time.
