Effect of dead space on avalanche speed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The effects of dead space (the minimum distance travelled by a carrier before acquiring enough energy to impact ionize) on the current impulse response and bandwidth of an avalanche multiplication process are obtained from a numerical model that ...

The effect of thresholding on temporal avalanche statistics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory and Experiment, 2008
We discuss intermittent time series consisting of discrete bursts or avalanches separated by waiting or silent times. The short time correlations can be understood to follow from the properties of individual avalanches, while longer time correlations ...

Effects of Climate Change on Avalanche Accidents and Survival [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Avalanches are major natural hazards in snow-covered mountains, threatening people and infrastructure. With ongoing climate change, the frequency and types of snow avalanches may change, affecting the rates of avalanche burial and survival. With a wetter and warmer snow climate, consequences of burial may become more severe.

Trend effects on perceived avalanche hazard

open access: yesRisk Analysis, 2022
AbstractHazard‐level forecasts constitute an important risk mitigation tool to reduce loss of economic values and human life. Avalanche forecasts represent an example of this. As for many other domains, avalanche risk is communicated using a color‐coded, categorical risk scale aimed at informing the public about past, current, and future risk.

A user perspective on the avalanche danger scale – insights from North America [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
Danger ratings are used across many fields to convey the severity of a hazard. In snow avalanche risk management, danger ratings play a prominent role in public bulletins by concisely describing existing and expected conditions.

Exploring the relationship between avalanche hazard and run list terrain choices at a helicopter skiing operation [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019
While guides in mechanized skiing operations use a well-established terrain selection process to limit their exposure to avalanche hazard and keep the residual risk at an acceptable level, the relationship between the open/closed status of runs and ...

Avalanche effects near nanojunctions

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2016
In this article, we perform a computational investigation of a nanopore connected to external fluidic reservoirs of asymmetric geometries. The asymmetry between the reservoirs is achieved by changing the cross-sectional areas, and the reservoirs are designated as the micropore reservoir and macropore reservoir.

Avalanche Effect in Improperly Initialized CAESAR Candidates [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
Cryptoprimitives rely on thorough theoretical background, but often lack basic usability features making them prone to unintentional misuse by developers. We argue that this is true even for the state-of-the-art designs. Analyzing 52 candidates of the current CAESAR competition has shown none of them have an avalanche effect in authentication tag ...

Proton radiation effect on InAs avalanche photodiodes [PDF]

open access: yesOptics Express, 2017
With increasing interest over the past decade in space-related remote sensing and communications using near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, there is a need for radiation studies on NIR avalanche photodiodes (APDs), due to the high radiation environment in space.
