Landslide-generated waves (LGWs) are among natural hazards that have stimulated
attentions and concerns of engineers and researchers during the past decades. At the same …

Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are among the most concerning consequences of
retreating glaciers in mountain ranges worldwide. GLOFs have attracted significant attention …

Geomorphic mass flows are often complex in terms of material composition and its evolution
in space and time. The simulation of those hazardous phenomena would strongly benefit …

To simulate debris-flow behaviour from initiation to deposition, we derive a depth-averaged,
two-phase model that combines concepts of critical-state soil mechanics, grain-flow …

r. avaflow represents an innovative open-source computational tool for routing rapid mass
flows, avalanches, or process chains from a defined release area down an arbitrary …

Erosion can significantly increase the destructive power of a landslide by amplifying its
volume, mobility and impact force. The threat posed by an erosive landslide is linked to its …

In the morning of 23 August 2017, around 3× 10 6 m 3 of granitoid rock broke off from the
eastern face of Piz Cengalo, southeastern Switzerland. The initial rockslide–rockfall …

Subaerial landslides and volcano flank collapses can generate tsunamis with devastating
consequences. The lack of comprehensive models incorporating both the landslide and the …

The Cordillera Blanca in Peru has been the scene of rapid deglaciation for many decades.
One of numerous lakes formed in the front of the retreating glaciers is the moraine-dammed …

Hazard and risk assessment of landslides with potentially long run-out is becoming more
and more important. Numerical tools exploiting different constitutive models, initial data and …
