SNOWDRIFT EXTENT ON MOTORWAYS WITH BUSY TRAFFIC
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 2
Abstract
The paper examines the problem of snow-drafts on roads and ways of mitigating them. The results of theoretical analyses of development of snow-drafts and experimental investigations with road models are presented. Authors examined low and high blowing snows with different wind velocities, roads with road bed at terrain elevation and situated on an embankment, with and without snow protective facilities and with variable amount of traffic. Based on the conducted analyses a set of recommendations for snow protection of roads are provided.
