Velocity profile of debris flow based on quadratic rheology model
The quadratic rheology model considers the yield stress, viscous stress, turbulent stress and disperse stress, so it is used in this study to derive the velocity profile of debris flows. The quadratic model wi...

Comparison of the entrainment rate of debris flows in distinctive triggering conditions
Debris flows can be extremely destructive because they can increase in magnitude via progressive entrainment. In this paper, a total of 18 landslide-type debris flows and 268 channelized debris flows in Wenchu...

Effects of seismic surge waves and implications for moraine-dammed lake outburst
Moraine dams usually collapse due to overtop** by the surge wave in the dammed lake, and the surge wave is most likely caused by an earthquake. The seismic water wave (SWW) is a major factor causing the dam ...
