Abstract Cellular Automata (CA) & Markov-Chain modeling are concepts that are utilized in
numerous branches of science. Powerful as they are independently, these two theoretical …

This article discusses research in which the authors applied the Revised Universal Soil Loss
Equation (RUSLE), remote sensing, and geographical information system (GIS) to the …

Surface flows of hydrological interest, including overland flow, runoff, river and channel flow
and flooding have received significant attention from modellers in the past 30 years. A …

Flash floods have occurred frequently in the urban areas of southern China. An effective
process-oriented urban flood inundation model is urgently needed for urban storm-water …

Cellular Automata (CA) represent a formal frame for dynamical systems, which evolve on the
base of local interactions. Some types of landslide, such as debris flows, match well this …

The main goal of this paper is to provide an overview of a variety of methods for synthesis of
eroded terrain for use in computer games, VR worlds and the like. Traditionally, such …

Cellular Automata (CA), a paradigm of parallel computing, represent an alternative to
differential equations for modelling and simulating very complex phenomena, whose …

Powerful graphics hardware is enabling strong improvements in both the appearance and
the complexity of virtual worlds for games and simulations. However, current practices in the …

In 1997, the worst forest fire in Indonesia occurred and hit mangrove forest areas including
in Sembilang National Park Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra. Therefore, the Indonesian …

Landslides pose a severe risk to humans, but accurately quantifying human risk remains
challenging due to the less-studied fleeing process of humans during landslides. This study …
