Adhesion of Wet Snow to Different Cable Surfaces [PDF]
Cohesion of snow and its adhesion to cable surfaces are the decisive factors for wet-snow shedding from power-line cables. Knowing the adhesive strength of snow is essential to predict when snow will shed and what consequences it will have on the ...
