Study of the propagation of waves in ice-water mixtures with application to sea ice-water in the arctic
Abstract
The constitutive relations that are currently in use cannot adequately describe the response of many materials such as metallic allo ys, colloids, suspensions and mixtures whose constituents chemically react. There is a need to rethink and systematically develop im plicit constitutive relations that relate the stress and its history, the relevant kinematical quantities and their histories, and o ther relevant variables and their histories. Such a program has been initiated recently and this effort needs to be pursued vigorous ly, and this grant addresses such a pursuit. Implicit constitutive relations will be developed both single constituent bodies as wel l as mixtures and initial-boundary value problems will be solved within such an approach. Specifically, the constitutive relations f or mixtures will be used to study ice-water mixtures with a view towards understanding the response of arctic ice.
