Application of an Inertia Dependent Flow Friction Model to Snow Avalanches: Exploration of the Model Using a Ping-Pong Ball Experiment
Snow avalanches are catastrophic phenomena because of their destructive power. Therefore, it is very important to forecast the affected area of snow avalanches using numerical simulations. In our study, we focus on applying a numerical model to snow avalanches. The inertia-dependent flow friction mo...
