ICING OCCURENCE, CONTROL AND PREVENTION-AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

AN ICING IS A MASS OF SURFACE ICE FORMED DURING THE WINTER BY SUCCESSIVE FREEZING OF SHEETS OF WATER THAT SEEP FROM THE GROUND, FROM A RIVER, OR FROM A SPRING. ICINGS CAUSE SEVERE PROBLEMS WHEN THEY OCCUR NEAR HIGHWAYS, RAILROADS, AIRFIELDS, OR STRUCTURES. ANNOTATIONS GIVEN FOR 93 PAPERS, ARTICLES, OR BOOKS FROM NORTH AMERICA AND THE SOVIET UNION DESCRIBE THE WAYS IN WHICH ICINGS FORM AND DEVELOP, AS WELL AS A WIDE VARIETY OF TECHNIQUES FOR CONTROLLING AND PREVENTING ICINGS AND THEIR HARMFUL EFFECTS ON TRANSPORTATION. THE ENTRIES SPAN THE PERIOD FROM 1919 TO 1966. THE ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY CAN SERVE MANY PURPOSES IN THE TRANSPORTATION FIELD, SUCH AS (A) PROVIDING AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE MECHANICS OF ICING PROCESSES, (B) EXPANDING ACQUANITANCE WITH THE VARIOUS METHODS FOR COMBATING ICINGS, AND (C) GIVING AN ASSESSMENT OF THE DEGREE OF SUCCESS OF FAMILIAR METHODS AS EXPERIENCED IN THE SOVIET UNION. /AUTHOR/
