Physical modelling of the interaction between powder avalanches and defence structures

Physical modelling of the interaction between powder avalanches and defence structures

In order to better understand the interaction between powder snow avalanches and defence structures, we carried out physical experiments on small-scale models. The powder snow avalanche was simulated by a heavy salt solution in a water tank. Quasi two-dimensional and three-dimensional experiment...
