Many theoretical and laboratory studies have been undertaken to understand debris-flow
processes and their associated hazards. However, complete and quantitative data sets from …

Flexible ring net barriers have become increasingly popular in practical mitigation of debris
flow worldwide. Systematic assessments of their response and performance subjected to the …

Natural hazards such as debris flows are real threat to the urbanization of
mountainousareas. Local communities and infrastructures can be exposed to large impact …

The destructive nature of debris flows is mainly caused by flow bulking from entrainment of
an erodible channel bed. To arrest these flows, multiple flexible barriers are commonly …

Flexible barriers are a promising tool for protection against extremely rapid landslides such
as debris flow and debris avalanches. With landslide impacts of any size, the total force …

Debris flows are highly unpredictable and mechanically chaotic phenomena that can spread
or branch away from an expected path or pre-existing channel, a phenomenon termed …

Debris flows are gravitational mass movements of rock incorporated in a fluid matrix of fine
sediments suspended in water [3, 4]. Often the term debris avalanche is used to refer to the …

The aim of this paper is to analyse debris flow impact against rigid and undrained barrier in
order to propose a new formulation for the estimation of acting force after the flow impact to …

Physical modelling of debris flow in a small-scale flume has been carried out to investigate
the internal stress-transfer mechanisms within unsteady, saturated, and segregating …

Flexible barriers may be installed upstream in debris flow channels to reduce entrainment of
bed material. Simulating both the entrainment and the impact on a barrier by the same …
