Flow-like landslides, such as debris flows and rock avalanches, travel at extremely rapid
velocities and can impact large areas far from their source. When hazards like these are …

This paper represents the result of the IAEG C35 Commission “Monitoring methods and
approaches in engineering geology applications” workgroup aimed to describe a general …

This paper aims to present several approaches for fluid–solid coupling applied in landslide
river blocking simulations based on the Abaqus software. These approaches include the …

Abstract In the Yarlung Zangbo River valley in north Himalaya, many high-frequency debris
flows develop, with large amounts of run-out debris materials. To reduce the hazard scale of …

Over the past 50 years, catastrophic rock-ice avalanches have frequently occurred in the
Parlung Zangbo Basin, such as those involving the Guxiang and Tianmo gullies, causing …

The effect of time on soil properties, noticeable in many earthworks, is recognized by
geotechnicians. For example, secondary compression and aging pre-consolidation are …

Debris flows may run into urban areas where the flows are affected by the presence of
buildings and urban hard surfaces. This study aims to simulate debris flows in the urban …

The rheological behavior of natural slurries consisting of fine-grained, reconstituted debris-
flow deposits on pyroclastic terrains having different solid concentrations (ranging from 30 to …

To analyze the kinetic characteristics of a debris flow that occurred on 9 April 2000 in Tibet,
China, a meshfree numerical method named smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is …

Not only solid volumetric concentration, but also coarse particle content play a relevant role
on the rheology of soil mixtures involved in mud, debris, hyper-concentrated and earth flows …
