This book introduces a new computer program that analyzes avalanche runout distance, speed, and depth of debris in runout zones. The user inputs variables such as the avalanche path's longitudinal profile, snow thickness, and two friction coefficients which the program then uses alongside the Navier Stokes equations to model the avalanche. The program also allows for adjustment of input variables relevant to the avalanche's path, such as slope angle and varying surface friction. The author successfully tested the program in a variety of avalanche cases and determined the sensitivity of runout distance to various parameters. This book is an innovative and practical contribution to the field of avalanche science, with its modeling techniques providing valuable insights into the complex dynamics of avalanches.
