Fast Landslide Propagation: Alternative Modelling Techniques

We model debris flows using two sets of nodes, describing the water and the solid phases, which can move relative to each other. We present first the mathematical model which will be used, deriving it from Zienkiewicz-Shiomi model, and arriving to the depth integrated model proposed by Pitman and Le.

SPH energy conservation for fluid-solid interactions

In the present work, the energy conservation properties of the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) are investigated in the presence of fluid–solid interactions. Similarly to the fluid phase, the solid bodies are modeled through solid particles so that the whole solid–fluid domain can be described as a unique particle system.
