Debris flows are among the most catastrophic natural phenomena, attracting the interest of
researchers, engineers and government agencies. The complexity of the physical process …

Earth surface flows in nature, like debris flows and rock avalanches, have threatened
people's safety and infrastructure during past decades. Though grain size distribution (GSD) …

Structural countermeasures such as slit dams and check dams are widely installed in
mountainous regions to mitigate debris-flow hazards. However, current approaches adopted …

The loose material in the mountain gullies is prone to form serious debris flow disasters
under appropriate hydrodynamic conditions. The various compositions of these loose …

Landslide‐induced debris flows can travel long distances. Many field studies, laboratory
experiments, and theoretical studies have been conducted to clarify the mechanisms of long …

Size segregation, which is a robust feature of sheared granular mixtures and geophysical
mass flow deposits, is found to diminish in the presence of a viscous fluid. We study this …

In the last 130 years, Icelandic glaciers have experienced significant mass loss, and
numerous paraglacial slope failures have been documented in the country. One such failure …

Surging debris flows are among the most destructive natural hazards, and elucidating the
interaction between coarse‐grained fronts and the trailing liquefied slurry is key to …

The recognition, repetition and prediction of the post-failure motion process of long-runout
landslides are key scientific problems in the prevention and mitigation of geological …

A comprehensive understanding of the deposit morphodynamics of debris flows in river
valleys is crucial for disaster prevention and mitigation in mountainous areas. However …
