Laboratory-prepared fine-grained, initially isotropic polycrystalline ice samples were deformed under conditions of simple shear with simultaneous uniaxial compression at a constant temperature of −2.0°C. The aim was to investigate the effects of stress configuration on the flow rate of initially isotropic ice and on ice with subsequent stress and strain-induced anisotropy. Experiments were carried out for various combinations of shear and compression with shear stress ranging from 0 to 0.49 MPa and compressive stress ranging from 0 to 0.98 MPa, but such that for every experiment the octahedral shear stress was 0.4 MPa.The strain curves resulting from the experiments clearly exhibit minimum strain rates while the ice is still isotropic, and steady-state tertiary strain rates along with the development of steady-state anisotropic fabric patterns. With constant octahedral stress (root-mean-square of the principal stress deviators), the minimum octahedral shear-strain rate has no dependence on stress configuration. This result supports the hypothesis that the flow of isotropic ice is dependent only on the second invariant of the stress tensor. This fundamental assumption has been used to provide a general description of ice-flow behaviour independent of the stress configuration (e.g. Nye, 1953; Glen, 1958; Budd, 1969).For the tertiary flow of anisotropic ice, the octahedral strain rate is stress-state dependent as a consequence of the developed crystal-orientation fabric, which is also stress-state dependent, and which develops with strain and rotation. The present tests indicate that the enhancement factor for steady-state tertiary octahedral shear-strain rate depends on the shear or compression fraction and varies from about 10 for simple shear (with zero compression) to about 3 for uniaxial compression (with zero shear).

Examination of the past and present behaviour of the Erebus Glacier tongue over the last 60 years indicates that a major calving from the tongue appears to be imminent. Calculations of the regime of the tongue indicate that bottom melt rates may exceed 1 m a−1. By successive mapping of the ice tongue between the years 1947 and 1970, longitudinal strain-rates were determined using the change in distance between a set of 15 teeth, which are a prominent marginal feature of the tongue. Assuming a flow law for ice of the form where τ is the effective shear stress and is the effective shear strain-rate, values of the exponent n = 3 and B = 1 × 108 N m−2 are determined. These are in fair agreement with published values.

Non-Newtonian fluid is a kind of fluid that its shear stress is not always keeps a linear relationship with the shear strain rate. An overview of its applications was made here. Based on the special rheological properties, non-Newtonian fluids are divided into different types and used as additives, mediums and protective materials in many fields. The paper focuses on its applications in fluid rheological properties improving, damping devices, individual protection equipments and mechanical processing. The main achievements in application of the non-Newtonian fluid were introduced and a further prospect was also summarized.

A series of multiaxial ratcheting tests were conducted on 63Sn–37Pb solder. A unified viscoplastic constitutive model was developed on the basis of the Ohno–Wang kinematic hardening model, and the rate dependence of the material was taken into consideration by introducing a viscous term. The stress-strain hysteresis loop of 63Sn–37Pb under different strain rates can be simulated reasonably well by the model. However, since the axial ratcheting strain rate of 63Sn–37Pb solder is strongly dependent on the applied shear strain rates in axial/torsional ratcheting, the original constitutive model fails to describe the effect of shear strain rate on the ratcheting strain. To improve the rate sensitivity of the model, the material parameter μi was correlated to the strain rate. Comparisons of the experimental and simulated results verify that the modified constitutive model is able to predict the complicated deformation of 63Sn–37Pb. The effects of axial stress, shear strain range, loading history, and strain rate on ratcheting behavior can be reflected fairly well.

The objective of this paper was to determine the rheological properties especially shear stress and apparent viscosity vs. shear strain rate, and density of commercially available but also homemade tomato ketchup. The effect of tomato content of density and apparent viscosity of tomato ketchup was also described. Shear stress and apparent viscosity were observed in shear strain rates range from 0.1 s-1 up to 68 s-1. All measurements were carried out at a constant temperature of 22 °C. Experimental results were modeled using a power-law (also known as Ostwald-de Waele) model (R2 ranged from 0.9508 up to 0.9991). The flow behaviour of all measured tomato ketchup samples exhibited non-Newtonian pseudoplastic (shear thinning) behavior where the flow index (n) showed values between 0 and 1. Flow index (n) and consistency coefficient (K) can be used especially in numerical simulation of the flow behaviour of pseudoplastic (shear thinning) liquids.

An analysis is made of the rate of bubble coalescence in an ice mass that is deforming. A total strain of at least 8 is required before appreciable coalescence occurs. The analysis has been applied to deforming ice shelves and ice sheets. No appreciable coalescence is expected in ice shelves but coalescence should occur in ice sheets (or glaciers) if the shear strain-rate at the bottom surface is of the order of 0·075/year or larger. Measurements of bubble concentration are capable of setting limits on paleo-strain-rates of the present ice sheets. Bubble migration down temperature gradients presents complications to the study of bubble coalescence.

AbstractWe use displacements derived from matching complex synthetic aperture radar data using maximum coherence to generate a dense network of velocity estimates over the Amery Ice Shelf. From these velocities we generate the horizontal strain-rate components and resolve them with respect to the local flow direction. We present the spatial distributions of velocity and transverse shear strain rate and use them to investigate features of the flow regime for the shelf. From the southern end of the shelf, velocity decreases from a high of about 800ma–1 to around 300 ma–1, and then increases to a maximum of about 1350ma–1 at the centre of the front. Strain rates vary systematically across and along the shelf. The pattern of the transverse shear strain rate clearly identifies the shear margins, where values exceed 0.1 a–1 in the southern section of the shelf. The pattern also shows longitudinal bands of enhanced shear strain rate containing ice with a strong preferred crystal fabric that was advected from shear margins upstream. In the northern section of the shelf, significant values of longitudinal and traverse stresses lead to enhanced shear deformation through their effect on the octahedral shear stress term.

A new method for solving the shear stress and the effective viscosity of Eyring shear-thinning fluid in thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) was proposed and applied to two models. Model 1 is the thermal EHL model with one-direction velocity, and model 2 is the spinning thermal EHL model in which the velocity varies with coordinates. Comparisons between the new and the existing method were carried out. Results show that only replacing the shear strain rate of model 1 with that of model 2, the shear stress and the effective viscosity of model 2 for Eyring shear-thinning fluid can be obtained. For model 1, results obtained with the two methods are the same. The new method can be qualified and applied into model 2. It is proved that the new method has higher efficiency for shear-thinning fluid than the existing method. Therefore, the new method is more efficient and can be used for spinning Eyring shear-thinning thermal EHL.
