An equivalent fluid/equivalent medium approach for the numerical simulation of coastal landslides propagation: theory and case studies

Coastal and subaqueous landslides can be very dangerous phenomena since they are characterised by the additional risk of induced tsunamis, unlike their completely-subaerial counterparts. Numerical modelling of landslides propagation is a key step in forecasting the consequences of landslides. In thi...
