… InSections 3 and 4, I introduce the physical properties of lavas and the natureof the surface …

… We can thus write the equation of motion of the lava in the greatly simplified … to the loss due
to blackbody radiation. We therefore approximate the loss of heat of the lava layer [Shaw and …

… We assume that the lava flow is a Bingham fluid characterized by yield … (h), and that it advances
as an incompressible laminar flow. … of the hazards and dynamics of lava flows. Thanks to …

… The model shows how the lava flow dynamics is affected by cooling and crystallization. …
taking into account the occurrence of crystallization in the lava flow, we assume the following law …

… The behaviour of a lava flow is reproduced by a two-… The gross features of observed
lava flows are reproduced by the model which allows us to estimate the sensitivity of flow …

… After describing the primary features of lava flows, therefore, this … The main factors
controlling how lava flows develop are the rate at which lava is effused from the ground, the lava's …

… reasonable hypotheses of incompressible fluid and constant specific heat, the dynamics of
lava flows are generally described by the following transport equations for mass, momentum, …

… variation in these parameters in space and time, and numerically link them to the resulting
flow dynamics, we can arrive at an effective Type II lava flow model. Of these, rheology is the …

… the main inflation features, as well as the components of the … , as well as the processes that
produce the various lava-flow … the characteristic facies of various lava flow types is thus the …

… We have conducted a preliminary investigation of the fractal nature of the plan-view shapes
of lava flows in Hawaii (based on field measurements and aerial photographs) as well as in …
