Shallow free-surface geophysical flows

A class of related shallow free-surface flows characterized by a fluidor variable granular-fluid mixture flowing over variable topography.

• tsunami propagation and inundation;• storm surges;• overland/fluvial flooding, dam and levee breaches etc.;• sediment erosion, deposition and transport;• landslides, mudslides, lahars and debris flows;• dry granular (or snow) avalanches;

Future Directions

• Further integration of slope-stability models and failuresurfaces

• Single-layer two-phase mixture models:• debris-entraining tsunami inundation• subaerial tsunamigenic landslides• debris-entraining floods

• Multi-layer two-phase models• submarine tsunamigenic landslides• sediment transport• turbidity currents?

• Uncertainty quantification, probabilistic approaches.
