The mechanical properties studies range from quasi-static to shock loading rates and are used to solve engineering and geophysical problems for snow and other granular materials.
Past projects have produced experimental data used to determine the coefficient of thermal expansion in sea ice, thermal conductivity of snow and loess, the acoustical properties of snow, snow compaction from quasi-static to shock loading rates, processes of thermal convection in snow, and frost heaving forces on foundation piles.
Theoretical efforts have resulted in models describing the consitutive behavior for snow compaction from quasi-static to shock loading rates, micromechanical processes of penetration in granular materials, performance characteristics of snow water equivalent gages, and interpreting ice stress measurements to determine total structural loads.
