Dataset for Tidal modulation of ice streams: Effect of periodic sliding velocity on ice friction and healing

This data set contains text files for the experimental logs of ice-on-rock friction experiments that were conducted in a double direct shear apparatus at temperatures of -16.4 C to -2 C. There are eleven files (C28-C34, C39-C41, and C44). Each file contains 4 columns of data that correspond to time (s), vertical displacement (microns), friction, and velocity. The data were prepared by converting voltages from experimental feedbacks, to appropriate units using calibrations, as conducted separate. Miscellaneous loading and unloading data were removed and the data was filtered modestly (100 point moving average filter in matlab). The data set includes all information needed to plot friction or velocity vs. time or displacement from the beginning to end of the run.
