Modeling crack arrest in snow slab avalanches -- towards estimating avalanche release sizes
Francis Meloche, Grégoire Bobillier, Louis Guillet +3
Dry-snow slab avalanches are considered to be the most difficult to predict, yet the deadliest avalanche types. The release of snow slab avalanches starts with a initial failure in…

A Depth-Averaged Material Point Method for Shallow Landslides: Applications to Snow Slab Avalanche Release
Louis Guillet, Lars Blatny, Bertil Trottet +1
Shallow landslides pose a significant threat to people and infrastructure. While often modeled based on limit equilibrium analysis, finite or discrete elements, continuum particle-…
