This rheology was implemented in the Lagrangian sea ice model neXtSIM (Rampal et al.\, 2015)\, and was shown to adequately represent the statis tics of sea ice deformation fields. This new physics governing the fractur e of sea ice remains however highly parameterized. In recent years\, we im plemented the MEB rheology in the Eulerian framework commonly used in the sea ice modelling community. In ideal ice bridge experiments\, it was show n that the damage parameterization is unstable under large compression\, l acks strain hardening properties and produces angles of fracture that do n ot follow theory. Here\, we use ideal uniaxial compression simulations to identify the origin of these instabilities\, to quantify the deviation of the angles of fracture from the theory and to determine the flow rule impl ied by the damage parameterization. We propose a modification to the param eterization that improves both the model stability and the simulated orien tation of the lines of fracture. We however stress that the modifications are yet not tantamount to including a flow rule\, such that the type of de formation associated to the ice fracture remains dissociated from the yiel d parameters.\n\nWednesday Dec 04/ 2.30 PM/ Room 934 Burnside Hall\n\n \n \n \n\n \n DTSTART:20191204T193000Z DTEND:20191204T203000Z LOCATION:Room 934\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Improving the damage parameterization of the Maxwell Elasto-Brittle rheology to better resolve the orientation of ice fractures URL:/meteo/channels/event/improving-damage-parameteriz ation-maxwell-elasto-brittle-rheology-better-resolve-orientation-ice-30309 0 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
