Reliability analysis of a large curved-roof structure considering wind and snow coupled effects
Disaster Prevention and Resilience, 2022Ensuring the safety of large curved-roof structures subjected to blizzards in cold regions remains challenging. This paper assesses the reliability of a large curved-roof structure considering the coupled effects of wind and snow. To this end, a two-way coupled simulation considering the interaction between snow particles and turbulent wind is first ...

Abstract An appropriate probabilistic description of snow loads is important in reliability analysis. Probability distributions for annual maximum ground snow loads are studied in detail in this paper based on the samples of snow loads on the ground, which are simulated by a snowmelt model.

Reliability of Steel Truss Roof Systems Under Variable Snow Load Profiles
International Journal of Steel Structures, 2020The probabilistic safety analysis of steel truss roof systems under variable snow load profiles is investigated. The roofs of structures such as industrial buildings or sports halls, which require wide areas, are frequently subjected to unexpectedly high loads.

Observations are inevitably contaminated with measurement uncertainty, which is a predominant source of uncertainty in some cases. In present practice probabilistic models are typically fitted to measurements without proper consideration of this uncertainty.

Reliability of sampling designs for spatial snow surveys
Computers & Geosciences, 2007Spatial patterns are an inherent property of most naturally occurring materials at a large range of scales. To describe spatial patterns in the field, several observations are made according to a certain sampling design. The spatial structure can be described by the semivariogram range, and nugget and sill variances. We test how reliably seven sampling
