The assessment and mitigation of floods in mountain streams, when large wood (LW) is
transported, pose several challenges. The process chain consisting of flood propagation …

Debris-flow deceleration baffles can effectively reduce debris-flow velocity and hence
reduce the impact of flowing debris on architectural structures in mountainous areas. In this …

Some types of barriers are designed with a clearance between the bottom of the barrier and
the channel bed. This feature allows small discharges to pass, thereby reducing the …

Rigid barriers are prevalent structure countermeasures for mitigating granular flow hazards
in mountainous areas. To reduce maintenance for barriers, a basal clearance is commonly …

Given the current challenges in flood risk management and vulnerability assessment of
buildings exposed to flood hazards, this study presents three-dimensional numerical …

Coarse sediment transported by steep mountain tributaries during channelized flash flood
events with intense bed load transport poses a significant threat to life, property, and …

Debris-flow deceleration baffles can be used to reduce flow velocity in a large gradient
drainage channel and the scouring rate of concrete at its bottom to extend its service life. A …

The impact of an avalanche in a reservoir induces impulse waves, which pose a threat to
population and infrastructure. For a good approximation of the generated wave height and …

In this study, experiments were performed in a 6-m-long flume to determine the
characteristics of viscous debris flows in a new type of drainage channel with oblique …

In this study, the discharge performance of the sluice passageway of tidal power plants was
investigated based on the experiments conducted in a planar open channel and three …
