This lecture covers snow mechanics related to avalanches, including the strength of weak layers, failure initiation, ductile-brittle transition, and stability tests like compression and Rutschblock tests. It discusses the shear strength of snow, loading rate effects, and key factors influencing natural and skier stability.
