Steep creek hazards are characterised according to their solid fraction, ν s, which governs
the flow dynamics. To arrest these hazards, rigid multiple barriers are installed along a …

Some types of barriers are designed with a clearance between the bottom of the barrier and
the channel bed. This feature allows small discharges to pass, thereby reducing the …

Rigid barriers are prevalent structure countermeasures for mitigating granular flow hazards
in mountainous areas. To reduce maintenance for barriers, a basal clearance is commonly …

Multiple barriers are commonly installed along predicted geophysical flow paths to intercept
large flow volumes. The main criterion for multiple-barrier design is volume retained. The …

A basal clearance is usually designed beneath barriers to enable sufficient discharge to
minimise the maintenance work over service life. Current design guidelines for multiple …

Mass-wasting processes are often intercepted using rigid barriers, which are sometimes
equipped with deflectors to prevent overspilling. Despite the engineering value of deflectors …

Curved seawalls remain one of the most widely adopted coastal-protection measure. A
curved face redirects flow momentum and prevents waves from overtopping. Likewise, the …

Structural countermeasures such as rigid and flexible barriers are commonly installed in
mountainous regions to intercept mass-wasting processes. Without sufficient and reliable …

Multiple barriers are commonly installed along predicted flow paths to intercept large
volumes of geophysical flows. Current practice ignores the impact and overflow dynamics …

Granular debris flow baffles are commonly installed in front of rigid barriers to dissipate flow
energy and reduce the required barrier impact capacity. Despite the engineering value of …
