Abstract
Calculations suggest that intergranular microcracks nucleated in ice c ubes compressed equally on all boundaries (J. Weiss and E. M. Schulson , 1995, Acta metall. mater., 43, 2303) are formed as the result of loc alized deformation via grain boundary sliding activated by shear stres ses which originate from the elastic anisotropy of the material.
