Samenvatting

In northern regions infrastructural architecture often faces the problem of snow deposition due to crosswinds. In this study efforts have been made to implement models of entrainment and accretion of snow particles into a commercial simulation tool. Numerical simulations are carried out on the topographic model of a highway, exposed to severe crosswind. The Lagrange based model is using the characteristics of a certain kind of snow. Particle tracks, velocities as well as concentrations of the accumulation along the road are visualized. Efficiency of planting beside the highway is investigated to allow the assessment of road maintenance measures. For the covering abstract see ITRD E134653.
