Aerodynamics and Snow-Restraining Capability of Snow Ridges, Snow Walls, and Trenches

The document states that up to the present time there have been no theoretical developments on problems involved in erecting snow-protective structures made of snow along highways and railways and finding their optimal parameters. It presents a theoretical study of aerodynamic properties of snow-pro...

Description
Summary:The document states that up to the present time there have been no theoretical developments on problems involved in erecting snow-protective structures made of snow along highways and railways and finding their optimal parameters. It presents a theoretical study of aerodynamic properties of snow-protective structures made of snow. Derived formulas afford calculations for practical purposes.
