Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes data from snow avalanche impact simulations done on a computer model and compares it to data and observations done on actual avalanches in the field. The author examines the forces on vertical and slope-normal impact walls, flow dynamics, pressures, and arrival times of avalanches. They also consider how changing the leading edge angle of the avalanche affects maximum and average pressure. By doing this, the author establishes a baseline of data for future researchers to study. Snow avalanche impact is a serious threat to people and infrastructure in mountainous regions, and this book provides valuable insights into the dynamics of avalanches and their impact forces. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
