Reliability analysis of a reinforced concrete structure under a dense snow avalanche loading
2014Cet article propose l’évaluation de la fiabilité d’une structure de protection sous sollicitation avalancheuse (avalanche de neige dense) à l’aide d’un modèle mécano-fiabiliste. Dans un premier temps, des courbes de vulnérabilité précisant l’endommagement et l’atteinte d’états limites en termes mécaniques sont présentées en fonction de l’intensité de l’

Site Specific Reliability-Targeted Snow Loads and Winter Wind Parameters Across the World
This report presents a framework for estimating Reliability Targeted Snow Loads (RTSLs) and Winter Wind Parameters (WWPs) at locations outside the Conterminous United States (OCONUS). The methodology integrates ground-based in-situmeasurements with gridded global climate products to generate spatially continuous RTSL estimates for nearly any location ...Bean, Brennan +4 more

Reliability analysis of an RC defense structure loaded by a dense snow avalanche pressure signal
2014To protect humans, roads or houses against snow avalanches, civil engineering structures are widely used. Designing these structures is still a challenge especially due to the uncertainties related to the loading developed by a snow avalanche. The case of the avalanche of Taconnaz (France), which occurred in 1999 and where important parts of the RC ...

The deployment of photovoltaic (PV) systems in northern climates faces signifi cantchallenges due to snow accumulation, which reduces operational effi ciency. Withclimate change causing extreme weather conditions to occur more frequently(IPCC, 2021), this challenge is exacerbated.

The prolonged 2023–2026 drought has exposed critical vulnerabilities in the hydro-infrastructural systems of Southern Italy, where drinking water supply depends on a coupled network of snow-fed reservoirs, spring systems, and karst aquifers. This contribution proposes a multi-hazard analytical framework that links snow drought, hydrogeological deficit,

To protect elements at risk (humans, roads, houses, etc.) against snow avalanches, civil engineering structures, such as dams or mounds, are used. In practice, the design of such defence structures is generally done following a deterministic approach which considers European regulation.

Climate change has been and increasingly will be a major threat to the ski tourism industry whose survival is highly dependent on existence of snow cover of sufficient depth and duration. The common knowledge requires that in order for a ski resort to be viable, it has to perform operations for at least 100 days in seven out of ten winters.
