Abstract: Dam-break flows of granular materials exhibit a complex non-Newtonian rheology, which is strongly influenced by various factors, such as the characteristics of the granular material, the degree of initial compaction, and ...

Abstract: Sudden displacement of large volumes of liquid–granular mixtures in nature (dam-breaks, landslides, floods, etc.) are often reported to be deadly and destructive. The flow behavior of those mixtures is complex and depends ...
