Our blind simulation of the #Brienz #rock #avalanche runout ETH Zürich and @SLFDavos Interview about our modeling approach. Gemeinde Albula/Alvra Graubünden Johan Gaume

As you may have heard, our group-head Daniel Farinotti will be the next president of EGU Cryosphere @egu-cr.bsky.social. Dive into this interview to get to know him better and hear about his vision for the role. 🎉❄️👏 🔗: blogs.egu.eu/divisions/cr/2…

Congrats Daniel 🙌🏻🎉!

Camille Huitorel presented parts of her #PhD research project on the hydro-mechanical modeling of #snow #avalanches and #debris #flows using #CFD-#DEM at the 2024 #CADFEM conference « Trends and Innovations in Numerical Simulation » in Rapperswill. 🙌🏻🙏 Camille.

#Geotechnical tests & sample collection in #debris #flow catchments. From Graubünden to Valais/Wallis. We hope for both improved process understanding (#erosion / deposition mechanisms) and input data for our #numerical #models. #Illgraben #ALMO #debrisflow #fieldwork

✨Congratulations to Lars Blatny for publishing his model for #cohesive, #compressible #granular flows in Journal of Fluid Mechanics ! This new elasto-viscoplastic model opens up new ways to simulate materials as sand & snow in both #solid & #fluid states, including complex #fracture processes

❄️ When #simulation meets #reality ❄️

We offer the following MSc thesis topic: Physical flume experiments of #Alpine Mass Movements on 3D Printed Topographies 🏔️ Location: SLF, Davos @SLFDavos #debrisflow #avalanche #research #job #joboffer #MSc #master Link and application details below alpinemassmovements.ethz.ch/education/msc-…
