Blowing Snow Transport Analysis for Estimating Drift Orientation and Severity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A methodology for performing a snow drift transport analysis is provided that considers the demonstrated dependency of snow transport on approximately the fourth power of wind speed, giving much greater weight to high winds ...
Maximum Impact Force of Woody Debris on Floodplain Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: We collided woody debris (i.e., logs) with structures using flume and test basin laboratory facilities to investigate the maximum impact force that floodplain structures are exposed to from floating woody debris. The tests ...
Crushing Ice Forces on Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: On the basis of the results of small-scale and medium-scale indentation tests and full-scale measurements of ice forces, a methodology to estimate crushing ice forces is presented. The main point to note is that the effective ...
