A Study on Avalanche-Triggering Factors and Activity Characteristics in Aerxiangou, West Tianshan Mountains, China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Through analyzing the triggering factors and activity characteristics of avalanches in Aerxiangou in the Western Tianshan Mountains, the formation and disaster-causing process of avalanches were studied to provide theoretical support and a scientific ...

Numerical simulation of neutron radiation effects in avalanche photodiodes

open access: yes, 2000
A new one-dimensional (1-D) device model developed for the simulation of neutron radiation effects in silicon avalanche photodiodes is described. The model uses a finite difference technique to solve the time-independent semiconductor equations across a ...

APALI – Avalanche Probability Along Linear Infrastructure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
To secure linear infrastructure in the most cost-efficient manner, hazard hot-spots need to be known not only with regard to the intensity of possible events but also their probability.

Design and characterisation of InGaAs high speed photodiodes, InGaAs/InAlAs avalanche photodiodes and novel AlAsSb based avalanche photodiodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Avalanche photodiodes (APDs) can provide higher sensitivity, when the noise is dominated by electronic noise, than conventional p-i-n photodiodes due to its internal gain achieved via the impact ionisation process.

End user and forecaster interpretations of the European Avalanche Danger Scale: a study of avalanche probability judgments in Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes
We investigate Scottish end users' and professional forecasters' risk perception in relation to the 5‐point European Avalanche Danger Scale by eliciting numerical estimates of the probability of triggering an avalanche. Our main findings are that neither
