Description for Shallow Geophysical Mass Flows Down Arbitrary Topography
Hardback. This book lays a foundation for formulating depth-averaged equations describing shallow geophysical mass flows - landslides, avalanches or debris flows. Offering detailed derivation of model equations, its stimulating examples show how the models are applied. Series: Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics. Num Pages: 296 pages, 56 black & white illustrations, 4 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: RBG; RNR. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 21. Weight in Grams: 608.
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.
