Part of the Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics series
- Information
Description
Geophysical mass flows, such as landslides, avalanches or debris flows, are frequent mass movement processes in mountain areas and often cause disastrous damage.
This book lays a foundation for formulating the depth-averaged equations describing the shallow geophysical mass flows over non-trivial topography.
It consists of the detailed derivation of the model equations.
The stimulating numerical examples demonstrate how the proposed models are applied.
All this make this book accessible to a wide variety of readers, especially senior undergraduate and graduate students of fluid mechanics, civil engineering, applied mathematics, engineering geology, geophysics or engineers who are responsible for hazard management.
