Landslide-generated waves (LGWs) are among natural hazards that have stimulated
attentions and concerns of engineers and researchers during the past decades. At the same …

The numerical modelling of 2D shallow flows in complex geometries involving transient flow
and movable boundaries has been a challenge for researchers in recent years. There is a …

Discretisation of the friction terms to ensure numerical stability and accuracy remains to be
challenging for the development of robust numerical schemes to solve the shallow water …

Landslides are natural disasters that have resulted in the loss of economies and lives over
the years. The landslides caused by the 2005 Muzaffarabad earthquake heavily impacted …

Mud/debris flows are among the most challenging gravity-driven flows in environmental and
geophysical processes. Natural muddy slurries and debris are solid-laden fluids where the …

Validation and benchmarking of pyroclastic current (PC) models is required to evaluate their
performance and their reliability for hazard assessment. Here, we present results of a …

We present a new model called GPUFLOW for the modeling and simulation of geophysical
flows. GPUFLOW, which is based on the cellular automaton paradigm, features a physical …

Flow-like landslides are one of the most catastrophic types of natural hazards due to their
high velocity and long travel distance. They travel like fluid after initiation and mainly fall into …

A granular landslide impacting a river may lead to the formation of a landslide dam blocking
the streamflow, and subsequently create a barrier lake. Should a barrier lake outburst, the …

Powerful numerical methods have to consider the presence of source terms of different
nature, that intensely compete among them and may lead to strong spatiotemporal …
