Moving Loads on Ice Plates

Moving Loads on Ice Plates by V.A. Squire, Roger J. Hosking, Arnold D. Kerr, Patricia J. Langhorne.

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...
