Coupled DEM-CFD Analyses of Landslide-Induced Debris Flows

This book reflects the latest research results in computer modelling of landslide-induced debris flows. The book establishes an understanding of the initiation and propagation mechanisms of landslides by means of numerical simulations, so that mitigation strategies to reduce the long-term losses from landslide hazards can be devised. 

In this context, the book employs the Discrete Element Method (D...
