Fluctuation phenomena in crystal plasticity - a continuum model [PDF]
, 2005 On microscopic and mesoscopic scales, plastic flow of crystals is characterized by large intrinsic fluctuations. Deformation by crystallographic slip occurs in a sequence of intermittent bursts ('slip avalanches') with power-law size distribution. In the

Cellular-Automata model for dense-snow avalanches [PDF]
, 2007 This paper introduces a three-dimensional model for simulating dense-snow avalanches, based on the numerical method of cellular automata. This method allows one to study the complex behavior of the avalanche by dividing it into small elements, whose ...

Seismically Induced Snow Avalanches: The Central Italy Case
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 Snow avalanches are critical events due to the sudden instability of snow in mountain regions. Seismically induced snow avalanches, due to a particular type of trigger perturbing snow-covered slopes, are occasional events in geodynamically active ...

Emergence of Log-Normal Type Distributions in Avalanche Processes in Living Systems: A Network Model
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2021 Actin is the major cytoskeletal protein of mammal cells that forms microfilaments organized into higher-order structures by a dynamic assembly-disassembly mechanism with cross-linkers.

Comparison of simulated powder snow avalanches with photogrammetric measurements
Annals of Glaciology, 2016 Photogrammetric measurements of powder-cloud surfaces from large avalanches enable the observation of cloud evolution and dispersion as well as quantification of cloud velocities and powder volumes. Since 2002, a total of six large powder avalanches have

Spectral measurements of surface hoar crystals
Journal of Glaciology, 2017 Surface hoar crystals are common on the surface of mountain snow covers. Once buried, layers of large plate-shaped surface hoar crystals are prone to releasing dangerous snow-slab avalanches. Since snow microstructure influences the optical properties of
