Abstract

Despite climate change, snow avalanches remain an important natural hazard in mountainous regions. In particular, so-called snow slab avalanches account for the vast majority of skier-related avalanche incidents. In this presentation, we first discuss the mechanical properties of snow from a fundamental perspective and clarify several common misconceptions. We then take a look at some unusual deformation and failure modes of snow. These include temporal and spatio-temporal  oscillations as well as failure under compressive loads by propagation of anticracks, which is now recognized as the major mechanism controlling release of skier-triggered slab avalanches. We also discuss slab avalanche release from a reliability engineering point of view. Finally, we look into computational aspects of snow avalanche mechanics and demonstrate that materials scientists and geoscientists can learn a lot from the people who make animated films, and vice versa.

Speaker Bio

Prof. Dr. Michael Zaiser is currently the head of Institute of Materials Simulation in Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany. He got his Ph.D. in theoretical physics at the Max-Planck-Institut für Metallforschung (MPI-MF) in Stuttgart, Germany. Before he came back to Germany, he was a professor and deputy head in the School of Engineering at the University of Edinburgh. His main research fields including dislocation theory, microstructures-based plasticity modelling, microstructure properties and design of metamaterials, deformation and failure of materials with amorphous or disordered microstructures, and data-driven approaches to materials design and property prediction. He has published more than 150 articles in peer-reviewed journals, including 2 in Science, 1 in Nature Physics, 1 in Nature Reviews Physics, 3 in Nature Communications and 6 in Physical Review Letters.
