Abstract
The space distribution of flexural strains induced in a floating ice cover by its oscillations caused by the motion of an area of constant pressure is investigated. The dependences of flexural strains in front the load, in the loaded area, and in the wave track on the thickness of ice, velocity of propagation of pressure, and the type of its distribution are analyzed.
