Abstract
Biaxial compression experiments were carried out to investigate the mechanisms of crack nucleation in columnar freshwater ice. For strain rates higher than 10−3 s−1 at — 10°Cm, it is observed that crack nucleation is preceded by grain boundary sliding which results in local decohesion pockets spread intermittently along the boundary facets. The experimental results are shown to support the crack nucleation model presented in the companion paper.
