Avalanche observations at the Ryggfonn test site, Norway, with correlation to snow and weather conditions [PDF]
, 2014 The Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) has been running full-scale avalanche experiments at the Ryggfonn test-site in western Norway for close to 40 years. Data from this period involve observations from about 32 artificial avalanche releases and 158

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Climate change drives shifts in suitable habitats for Eurasian lynx and its prey (hare, roe deer) in Mohe, Daxing'anling Mountains. Under RCP scenarios, moderate warming (RCP4.5) promotes substantial habitat expansion, while high‐emission conditions (RCP8.5) lead to strong expansion in the 2050s but slower gains and partial contraction by the 2070s ...

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To address the issue of low detection accuracy for zero‐value insulators in distribution lines, this study proposes a novel method for detecting these insulators based on the electroluminescence effect. Through theoretical analysis and experimentation, it was found that the luminescence intensity of ZnS:Cu electroluminescent material varies ...

Review of Catenary Icing on High‐Speed Railways: Characteristics, Impact and Countermeasures
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The pantograph–catenary system (PCS) is the only path for electrified railway trains to acquire energy. Catenary icing during winter is a common natural phenomenon, which usually leads to the deterioration of the current quality and severely affects the operational safety of trains.

Artificial Snow Optimization in Winter Sport Destinations Using a Multi-agent Simulation
, 2011 This paper presents the Juste-Neige system for predicting the snow height on the ski runs of a resort using a multi-agent simulation software. Its aim is to facilitate snow cover management in order to i) reduce the production cost of artificial snow and

Strong Snow-Storms, their Effect on Snow Cover and Snow Accumulation
, 1977 Snow-drifts have been studied by many researchers both in field and laboratory conditions, however these investigations have been carried out mostly at wind speeds up to 20 m/s whereas in many areas of our planet snow-storms occur at winds up to 40 m/s ...
