DEMs can be acquired using topographic maps or remote-sensing technologies, such as photogrammetry or lidar. Depending on the acquisition technique, different spatial resolutions and qualities are achieved. However, there is a lack of studies that investigate the sensitivity of snow avalanche simulation algorithms to the quality and resolution of DEMs. Here, we perform calculations using the numerical avalance dynamics model RAMMS, varying the quality and spatial resolution of the underlying DEMs, while holding the simulation parameters constant. We study both channelized and open-terrain avalanche tracks with variable roughness. To quantify the variance of these simulations, we use well-documented large-scale avalanche events from Davos, Switzerland (winter 2007/08), and from our large-scale avalanche test site, Valĺee de la Sionne (winter 2005/06). We find that the DEM resolution and quality is critical for modeled flow paths, run-out distances, deposits, velocities and impact pressures. Although a spatial resolution of ~25 m is sufficient for large-scale avalanche modeling, the DEM datasets must be checked carefully for anomalies and artifacts before using them for dynamics calculations.}, language = {en} } @article{PieperKlein2011, author = {Pieper, Martin and Klein, Peter}, title = {A simple and accurate numerical network flow model for bionic micro heat exchangers}, series = {Heat mass transfer}, volume = {47}, journal = {Heat mass transfer}, number = {5}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {0947-7411}, pages = {491 -- 503}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{Pieper2011, author = {Pieper, Martin}, title = {Multiobjective optimization with expensive objectives applied to a thermodynamic material design problem}, series = {Proceedings in applied mathematics and mechanics : PAMM. 11 (2011), H. 1}, journal = {Proceedings in applied mathematics and mechanics : PAMM. 11 (2011), H. 1}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1617-7061}, pages = {733 -- 734}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{SiekmannMueller2011, author = {Siekmann, Thomas and M{\"u}ller, Karsten}, title = {Anpassungspotenziale der konventionellen Regenwasserbehandlung im Mischsystem an Auswirkungen des Klimawandels}, series = {Energie-, Wasser-Praxis : Fachzeitschrift f{\"u}r die Energie- und Wasser-Praxis.
