3D numerical model of snow deformation without failure and its application to cold room mechanical tests

A three-dimensional model developed for the slow deformation, without macroscopic failure, of a stratified snow cover has been used to simulate laboratory mechanical tests performed on sieved snow. The model is based on a non-linear visco-elastic constitutive law for snow whose parameters depend on...
