This repository contains MATLAB scripts written for processing data from ice mechanics experiments performed in the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies Ice Mechanics Laboratory. They are designed to take raw data files containing temperature and displacement data, clean the data, calculate axial and octahedral strains and strain rates, and generate plots and other information relevant for glaciology research.
Also contained in the directory /plotting_scripts/ are scripts to process and plot microstructural information from electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and fabric analyer (FA) analysis.
All of these scripts were written and run using MATLAB 2018b.
Example datasets can be found at:

Processed data are presented in:

Start with the script experiment_data_process.m, which calls each data processing function in turn, saving the output periodically.
