A theoretical framework for dynamic anticrack and supershear propagation in snow slab avalanches

Marin Mathieu Siron, Bertil Trottet

Snow slab avalanches release after the failure and collapse of a weak layer buried below a cohesive snow slab. The initial failure is induced by local overloading of the slab, such that the passage of a skier. This results in the propagation of a subsidenc ...
