The study of ice loads and ice-structure interaction is central to ensuring the integrity and safety of offshore installations operating in polar and sub-polar regions. The engineering challenges stem ...

Scientists have for the first time recorded complicated structures in ice formed by freezing liquid water at the nanoscale. (Nanowerk News) You’d think there’s nothing surprising left to discover ...

Now, researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and the Abdus Salam International ...

It’s about that time of year again, when the DNR reminds anglers to remove their permanent ice structures from Wisconsin waters. The deadline for ice shanties that are not removed daily on inland and ...

This is a Christmas tree, but it’s also a step toward 3D-printed moon igloos. Researchers from the University of Amsterdam ...

The universe is full of water, mostly in the form of very cold ice films deposited on interstellar dust particles, but until recently little was known about the detailed small scale structure. Now the ...

Making ice requires more than subzero temperatures. The unpredictable process takes microscopic scaffolding, random jiggling and often a little bit of bacteria. We learn in grade school that water ...
