The ice crystal is one of the most anisotropic natural materials. Observations of polar ice show that the crystals are orientated along very marked privileged directions and that the fabric of the ice polycristal is the result of the strain history that the polycristal has undergone. The macroscopic polycristal behaviour depends on the fabric and can be strongly anisotropic. It has been shown that anisotropy can introduce the occurrence of stratigraphy disturbances and influences strongly the flow of the ice sheet. The aim of this work is to build an ice flow model for anisotropic ice and the evolution of its fabric. To this end, we model the ice monocrystal as a transversely isotropic continuous medium around its c-axis and we compare it w...
