    • Comparison of snow pressure measurements and theoretical predictions 

      McClung, David M.; Larsen, Jan Otto; Hansen, Svein Borg (Journal article, 1984)
      Measurements of snow creep pressures from the centre section of a 3.4 m high and 15 m long avalanche-defence supporting structure located on a mountain in western Norway are presented. The site has a deep snow cover and ...

    • Laws of friction in snow mechanics 

      McClung, David M. (Chapter, 1976)
      Laws of sliding and friction are of primary importance in the determination of pre-fracture conditions for slab avalanches as well as for practical considerations such as determining snow pressure loads on constructions ...

    • The temporal and spatial variation of snow pressure on structures 

      Larsen, Jan Otto; McClung, David M.; Hansen, Svein Borg (Journal article, 1985)
      Measurements of snow creep pressure on an avalanche-defence structure in western Norway are presented. Two different types of measurement methods are described and evaluated. Pressure data from four winters are correlated ...
