DESCRIPTION:Dr Nathalie Vriend is a Royal Society Dorothy Hodgkin Research
  Fellow in the DAMTP\, Cambridge. She received her PhD from CalTech in 201
 0 for her work on the phenomenon of Booming Sand Dunes. Her research focus
 es on granular flows such as snow avalanches and sand dunes. Despite their
  importance\, granular materials remain poorly understood\; due to the lac
 k of a comprehensive physical description\, mathematical tools and techniq
 ues are insufficient to fully predict their behavior at this time. Dr Vrie
 nd is an experimentalist\, but she also employs numerical simulations to d
 evelop analytical models and to form a comprehensive picture of open resea
 rch questions.\n\nThis talk is kindly sponsored by Schlumberger.\n\nMember
