FLATModel is a 2D finite volume code that contains several original approaches to improve debris-flow simulation. Firstly, FLATModel incorporates a "stop-and-go" technique in each cell to allow continuous collapses ...
Laboratory experiments on turbid density currents were conducted to observe the flow features of these currents with abrupt contracted and expanded reaches. Experimental data were used to determine water entrainment c...
A grey\|system theory based GM(1,1) model is used to predict the bed concentration of suspended sediment using the limited concentration measurements above the channel bed. The performance of the proposed method is ev...
