Landslides are serious geohazards that occur under a variety of climatic conditions and can
cause many casualties and significant economic losses. Centrifuge modelling, as a …

This review describes the mechanisms of lahars and debris flows, and their impacts on
buildings, infrastructure and other valuables. Lahars are a type of debris flow restricted to …

The centrifuge modeling of the impact dynamics of high-speed granular flows is important for
understanding debris–barrier interactions. However, it remains challenging owing to the …

Earth's surface is composed of a staggering diversity of particulate–fluid mixtures: dry to wet,
dilute to dense, colloidal to granular and attractive to repulsive particles. This material variety …

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

A decade of high-resolution monitoring has revealed extensive activity in fresh Martian
gullies. Flows within the gullies are diverse: they can be relatively light, neutral or dark …

Debris flows occur in mountainous areas characterized by steep slope and occasional
severe rainstorms. The massive urbanization in these areas raised the importance of …

A wide variety of issues are now being addressed using the concept of connectivity, which
has initiated the development of various methods to assess a river's relationship to its …

The run out and destructive potential of gravitational multi-phase flows is largely determined
by the mixture composition, the material properties of the solid particles and the fluid. One …

Granular flows of angular rock fragments such as rock avalanches and dense pyroclastic
flows are simulated numerically by means of the discrete element method. Since large-scale …
