Model Ice: A Review of its Capacity and Identification of Knowledge Gaps

This paper presents a review of the state of the art of model-scale ice with a focus on mechanical behavior, mechanical testing and scaling. The goal of the model-scale ice production is the generation of a material that can represent sea ice in as many aspects as possible. The question therefore is, to what extent model-scale ice complies with this high level requirement and what possible limitations of model-scale ice are encountered. A part...
