Description

The folders:

  • results_Geometrical_Regime
  • results_Mechanical_Regime
  • results_3D
  • results_varyingLengthSlope
  • results_varyingVelocity

contain the data for spacing and depth of the crevasses in the different simulations. Each simulation folder is named after the ice thickness H and cohesion c. For example, H300c2 means an ice thickness of 300m and a cohesion of 2MPa.

The simulation files contain data measured every 10 frames. Empty files imply two possibilities:
-the crevasse(s) are away from the window measurement (the window is approximately 1500m wide around the obstacle).
-No crevasses are observed or at least no distinguishable enough.

**
The python code readDataMeasuredInSimulations.py use the readDataPP class to plot the measures from the previous folders.
All the figures from the paper can be reproduced using this code.

**

The full simulation results cannot be transfered as a supplementary material as it is too large (20Go for each simulation). However we provide two full result files: H300_c0_4.abc and  H100_c2.abc. We provide an example of the init.lua file used to launch a simulation with given parameters and configurations. The configurations used in the simulations are all provided in the geometry.zip file.

A version of the MPM numerical model can be found in a previous publication at https://www.nature.com/articles/s43247-021-00179-7.
