Deformation of an elastic crust


E O Osagie

Abstract



The crust is modelled as an elastic body, which is subjected to a vertical load. The resulting deformation is analyzed. Finally, an attempt is made to use the result to determine the time scale for isostatic adjustments for Hudson's Bay ice sheet load.
