Description: CRREL Report
Abstract: We solved the viscoelastic deflection of an infinite floating ice plate subjected to a circular load, assuming the Maxwell-Voigt type four-element model. We developed an effective method of numerical integration of the solution integrals, of which each integrand contains a product of Bessel functions extending to infinity. We fitted the theoretical curve to the field data, but the material constants thus found varied with time and location.
