Landslide risks arising from boulder falls and debris flows are commonly mitigated using
rigid and flexible barriers. Debris–barrier interaction is a complicated process, so current …

Landslide disasters are associated with severe losses on the Loess Plateau of China.
Although early warning systems and susceptibility mapping have mitigated this issue to …

In this study, a single-layer SPH approach that takes into account full soil-water interactions
is proposed. The approach updates the propagation of pore pressure through combination …

Offshore engineering is facing the challenges of modeling large deformation problems
combined with the complexity of spatial variability of soils. This complex large deformation …

Most existing two-phase, two-layer Material Point Method (MPM) programs operate in
explicit form, which lacks computational efficiency. This study proposes a high-performance …

Slope failure analysis is a traditional topic in geotechnical engineering. Current continuum
modelling with phenomenological constitutive models fails to capture the physical …

The material point method (MPM) is an effective numerical technique for simulating extreme
events with large deformations. However, the standard MPM suffers from cell crossing noise …

Cryogenic fracturing is a relatively new technique used in gas and oil extraction. The
material point method (MPM) combines the advantages of the Lagrangian and Eulerian …

Rainfall and high leachate levels are the most prominent causes of MSW dumpsite
instability. The multiphase mass flow originating from the failure of dumpsites often results in …

Flow-like landslides are a common type of natural hazards that may impose a great risk to
people and their properties. Different models have been reported for simulating flow-like …
