This review article provides an overview of dry granular flows and particle fluid mixtures,
including experimental and numerical modeling at the laboratory scale, large scale …

Detailed sedimentological studies concerning different facies types and the factors
influencing their development (such as lithology, topography, substrates, etc.) were carried …

Large rock–ice avalanches have attracted attention from scientists for decades and some of
these events have caused high numbers of fatalities. A relation between rock slope …

This paper investigates the characteristics of dynamic rock fragmentation and its influence
on the postfailure fragment trajectory. A series of numerical simulations by discrete element …

The dynamic fragmentation of rock during avalanche motion has been postulated as a
mechanism explaining the long runout of large rock avalanches or Sturzströme. This paper …

Rock avalanches are characterized by huge volume, high velocity and long runout and
greatly threaten human lives and construction of major projects of the mountain areas in …

高速远程滑坡具有体积大, 速度高, 运动距离远等特点, 严重威胁着山区居民生命安全和重大工程
建设. 滑坡的碎屑化作用是滑坡高速运动过程中非常普遍且十分重要的现象 …

Rockfalls and rockslides often occur in mountainous areas, and they may develop into rock
avalanches because of fragmentation. A series of laboratory experiments were conducted to …

Aiming to understand the dynamic disintegration and transport behavior of an earthquake-
induced landslide, a dynamic discrete element method has been employed to analyze the …

Fractal-geometry techniques are widely applied to the quantification of complex rock
structures. Important properties of such structures are (i) different scaling behaviour on …
