APPLICATION OF PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN SNOW MECHANICS
In the present work, failure of a snow slab is analyzed by accounting Normal mode criteria. The analysis has been extended to include residual stress into the model (in addition to body forces). Intensity of crack energy release rate, and displacement components have been derived and their values have been estimated. The obtained results have been compared with the existing snow slab failure mo...
متن کاملSize scaling for dry snow slab release
[1] Sandpile avalanches were used first to illustrate the concept of self-organized criticality (SOC). Snow avalanches consist of two types: (1) loose snow avalanches which release in cohesionless material at the top of the snowpack and (2) slab avalanches which release by propagation of shear fractures originating in a thin weak layer at depth in the snowpack. Loose snow avalanches are analogo...
متن کاملCrack propagation in a Tantalum nano-slab
Using molecular dynamics with an accurate many-body potential for metallic Tantalum, we studied crack propagation in a pre-notched nano-slab under uniaxial strain in a [100] direction. We study dislocation emission from the crack tip for various strain rate and temperatures, focusing on the influence of the local temperature at the crack tip on the propagation of the crack. We find a close conn...
متن کاملApproximate estimates of fracture speeds for dry slab avalanches
[1] Dry slab avalanches release by propagating shear fractures. It has been suggested that slab wave or fracture speed on horizontal terrain is consistent with the propagation of a flexural wave in the slab. In this note, an alternate proposal is made. Namely, it is proposed that the fracture speed is consistent with dynamic crack propagation speeds from other materials. The theory is compared ...
متن کاملinvestigating cda tendency and critical thinking abilities of iranian translation students in relation to their translation quality
امروزه مسئله ی اساسی در رویکرد های جدید زبانشناسی، ابعاد اجتماعی و ایدئولوژیک زبان تلقی می شود. گروه های مختلف اجتماعی، سیاسی و یا مذهبی از زبان به عنوان ابزاری برای دستیابی به اهداف درون گروهی خود استفاده می کنند (ون دایک، 2003). آنها معولا ایدئولوژی خود را صریحا ابراز نمی کنند بلکه آن را در غالب کلمات و ساختارهای زبانی پنهان نگه می دارند. تشخیص ایدئولوژی های پنهان در گفتمان نیازمند این موضوع ...
