This review article provides an overview of dry granular flows and particle fluid mixtures,
including experimental and numerical modeling at the laboratory scale, large scale …

Positron emission particle tracking (PEPT) is a technique which allows the high-resolution,
three-dimensional imaging of particulate and multiphase systems, including systems which …

Large rock–ice avalanches have attracted attention from scientists for decades and some of
these events have caused high numbers of fatalities. A relation between rock slope …

Abstract On July 23, 2019, a catastrophic high-elevation and long-runout landslide occurred
in Shuicheng County, Guizhou Province, the karst mountainous area of southwestern China …

Rock‐ice avalanche events are among the most hazardous natural disasters in the last
century. In contrast to rock avalanches, the solid phase (ice) can transform to fluid during the …

Ice-rock avalanches which occur in glacial environments are controlled by the presence of
snow and ice in the moving material and by possible propagation onto icy basal surfaces. All …

Particle shape plays a crucial role in determining the mobility and impact characteristics of
granular flows, yet analyses of the effects of particle shape are rare. In this study, three …

As consequence of ongoing climate change, permafrost degradation is thought to be
increasingly affecting slope stability in periglacial environments. This is of growing concern …

Catastrophic mass flows (CMFs) in the glacial environment are an important geomorphic
process that may pose significant hazard to communities and infrastructure in glacierized …

Due to their simple geometric configuration and involved rich physics, rotating drums have
been widely used to elaborate granular flow dynamics, which is of significant importance in …
