• Conclusions from a recent survey of avalanche computational models 

      Harbitz, Carl Bonnevie; Issler, Dieter; Keylock, Christopher J. (NGI Publication;203, Chapter, 1998)
      In this paper we summarise a survey report on computational models for snow avalanche motion that was developed within the frame-work of the EU research project SAME (Snow Avalanche Modelling, Mapping and Warning in Europe). ...
    • Probabilistic calibration of avalanche block models. 

      Gauer, Peter; Medina-Cetina, Zenon; Lied, Karstein; Kristensen, Krister (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2008)
      The Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) has been operating the full-scale avalanche test-site Ryggfonn in western Norway for more than 25 years. During those years, measurements from about three dozen dry-snow avalanches ...
    • The snowdrift pattern around two cubical obstacles with varying distance. Measurements and numerical simulations. 

      Thiis, Thomas K.; Jaedicke, Christian (Chapter, 2000)
      Snowdrifts around buildings can cause serious problems when formed on undesirable places. The formation of snowdrifts is highly connected to the wind pattern around the building, and the wind pattern is again dependent on ...
