✦ Synopsis

The search to improve protective techniques against natural phenomena such as snow avalanches requires thorough analysis of the behaviour of a snow cover in interaction with a structure. This paper deals with a multiscale approach allowing the overall behaviour of the snowpack to be inferred from the local properties. The constitutive equations are obtained from a statistical description of the mantel, regarded at the micro level as a cohesive granular assembly. Further general results are derived on the changes in fabrics as an application, the case of a snow pack in interaction with a flexible structure is discussed.

## Abstract In this paper an analytic model allowing simulating the electrical characteristics and the leakage current of a snow‐covered insulator is proposed. For that purpose, leakage current through a snow‐covered insulator was monitored under high alternative voltage at a temperature of −12°C.
