Title: INFLUENCES OF OVERLYING SLAB THICKNESS ON THE SNOW MECHANICS OF BRIDGING PROPENSITY
Date: 2023-10-08
Authors: Matthew Cecil, John Gleason, Ron Simenhois
Description: Almost all snow avalanche fatalities are human induced. Regardless of the mode of travel, moving over snow cover results in a localized dynamic load (...

Title: Snowpack stabilization following storms: Field experiments and modelling of temporal changes in snow mechanical properties following loading
Date: 2018-10-07
Authors: Karl W. Birkeland, Alec van Herwijnen, Benjamin Reuter, Bastian Bergfeld
Description: Most dry slab avalanches occur during or immediately following loading by snowfall or winddeposition. In the absence of further loading avalanche acti...

Title: The Effect of Increasing Load on Weak Layer Fracture
Date: 2016-10-02
Authors: Karl W. Birkeland, Alec van Herwijnen
Description: Avalanches failing on buried weak layers tend to be easier to trigger during or immediately following snowfall, suggesting that loading favorably chan...

Title: Measuring the Mechanical Properties of Snow Relevant For Dry-Snow Slab Avalanche Release Using Particle Tracking Velocimetry
Date: 2016-10-02
Authors: Alec van Herwijnen, Ned Bair, Karl Birkeland, Ben Reuter, Ron Simenhois, Bruce Jamieson, Jürg Schweizer
Description: Particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) is a measurement technique widely used to determine displacement and velocity fields from video recordings. It is ...
