Evolution of water waves generated by subaerial solid landslide
نویسندگان
چکیده
Waves generated by aerial and subaerial landslides are studied experimentally, theoretically and numerically. A set of experiments are done in a wave tank of 18 m long, 0.65 m wide and 1.5 m deep. Numerical simulations are in good agreement with the experiments. Based on numerical and experimental results, we derive different scaling laws which show a good agreement with the experiments and the simulations. These scaling laws allow thus to predict the time evolution of the maximum amplitude wave generated by an aerial solid landslide, which is a relevant quantity for wave forecast.

Numerical simulation of waves generated by landslides using a multiple-fluid Navier–Stokes model
a r t i c l e i n f o This work reports on the application and experimental validation, for idealized geometries, of a multiple-fluid Navier–Stokes model of waves generated by rigid and deforming slides, with the purpose of improving predictive simulations of landslide tsunamis. In such simulations, the computational domain is divided into water, air, and slide regions, all treated as Newtonian...
متن کاملTsunami generated by a granular collapse down a rough inclined plane
In this Letter, we experimentally investigate the collapse of initially dry granular media into water and the subsequent impulse waves. We systematically characterize the influence of the slope angle and the granular material on the initial amplitude of the generated leading wave and the evolution of its amplitude during the propagation. The experiments show that whereas the evolution of the le...
متن کاملA numerical study of the run-up generated by three-dimensional landslides
[1] A large set of numerical experiments are designed to examine the maximum run-up generated by three-dimensional (3-D) submerged and subaerial, solid body landslides. A depth-integrated numerical model is utilized, allowing for the efficient simulation of landslides in shallow and intermediate water. Six dimensionless parameters are introduced: the slide thickness, the slide wave number, a sl...
متن کاملNumerical Modeling of water-waves induced by landslides with WC-MPS method
The rapid movement of sediments, which is often induced by a very erosive and transient flow in rivers and rivers, causes a lot of geomorphology and engineering problems. Failure of the dam with a moving bed, submerged landslide, sedimentation flushing in reservoirs are just a few examples of these problems. The study of waves is challenging due to the interference of several complex physical p...
