Effect of Snow Cover on Slope Stability of Embankment during Rainfall and Snowmelt
Last updated on 16 September 2025 12:56
In this study, the effect of snow cover on slope stability was examined to more accurately evaluate the risk of snowmelt hazards. Firstly, laboratory tests were carried out to determine strength characteristics of snow. In addition to laboratory tests, sprinkling model experiments were conducted on a snow-covered embankment model to...
