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

Testing the Strength of Buried Surface Hoar Weak Layers Under Combined Compression and Shear Loading

Geophysical Research Letters
We experimentally determined the multiaxial strength of weak layers of buried surface hoar using displacement‐controlled tests under combined normal and shear loading on a custom testing machine.

Snow forces, avalanches, and avalanche mitigation methods

, 2022
Snøskred utgjør en betydelig trussel mot menneskeliv og infrastruktur i fjellområder. Permanente sikringstiltak, slik som stive gjerder, fleksible nett, voller, skredoverbygg eller tunneler, kan brukes for å beskytte mot skredfare. For å oppnå tilfredsstillende utforming og dimensjonering av sikringstiltak er det viktig med tilstrekkelig forståelse av ...
