This paper begins with a description of the physical processes at work in powder snow avalanches and in turbidity currents. A comparison between these two kinds of phenomena is presented. In a second part, a mathematical model is given with a special emphasis on turbulence and erosion-sedimentation processes. This paper deals then with an experimental study of powder snow avalanches by means of laboratory models. The experiments look realistic, no quantitative conclusions can be drawn. Finally, different numerical simulations are described. Some of them are adapted to laboratory experiments, some others to actual powder snow avalanche events. / Cet article commence par une description des mécanismes physiques à l'oeuvre dans les avalanches ...
