Urban flooding has become an increasingly frequent and fatal natural hazard and numerical
modeling techniques play a vital role in its prediction and management. We review urban …

This work reviews the main techniques to model dynamical systems with contact-impact
events. Regularized and non-smooth formulations are considered, wherein the fundamental …

This paper aims at providing a state-of-the-art review on the applications of particle methods
in hydrodynamics-related problems in ocean and coastal engineering. The problems are …

Full-scale fluvial flood modelling over large catchments has traditionally been carried out
using coupled hydrological and hydraulic/hydrodynamic models. Such a traditional …

Particle finite element method (PFEM) is an effective numerical tool for solving large-
deformation problems in geomechanics. By incorporating the node integration technique …

In this work, we proposed a robust radial point interpolation method empowered with neural
network solvers (RPIM-NNS) for solving highly nonlinear solid mechanics problems. It is …

Hydrodynamic models have been widely used in urban flood modelling. Due to the
prohibitive computational cost, most of urban flood simulations have been currently carried …

Coupled fluid–solid phase continuum problems associated with large deformation as
geotechnics experts encounter in slope stability problems have been extensively reviewed …

Drainage channels with step-pool system are widely used to control debris flow. The
blocking of debris flow often gives rise to local damage at the steps and baffles. Hence, the …

This paper collects some recent smoothed particle hydrodynamic (SPH) applications in the
field of natural hazards connected to rapidly varied flows of both water and dense granular …
