Geomorphic impacts of rapid sediment-laden flows through computational modelling

Outburst floods are one of the most catastrophic natural hazards for populations and infrastructure. They are usually generated from storm runoff, rapid melting of glacial ice or man-made and natural dam breaks, such as river dikes, volcanic debris dams and landslide damns etc. Such high-magnitude s...
