Physics and Modeling of Various Hazardous Landslides

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
In 2014, the Varnes classification system for landslides was updated. Complex landslides can still be a problem to classify as the classification does not include the flow type in the hydrodynamical sense.

Experimental Study on Failure Mechanism and Mode of Fly-Ash Dam Slope Triggered by Rainfall Infiltration

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The fly-ash dam is used to store the fly ash discharged from the thermal power plant. A fly-ash dam is a special slope built with fly ash, and rainfall infiltration is an important reason to induce the landslide of this kind of slope.

Modeling of Breaching-Generated Turbidity Currents Using Large Eddy Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Breaching flow slides result in a turbidity current running over and directly interacting with the eroding, submarine slope surface, thereby promoting further sediment erosion. The investigation and understanding of this current are crucial, as it is the

Breaching Flow Slides and the Associated Turbidity Current

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
This paper starts with surveying the state-of-the-art knowledge of breaching flow slides, with an emphasis on the relevant fluid mechanics. The governing physical processes of breaching flow slides are explained.

Controlling Droplet Marangoni Flows to Improve Microscopy-Based TB Diagnosis

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
In developing countries, the most common diagnostic method for tuberculosis (TB) is microscopic examination sputum smears. Current assessment requires time-intensive inspection across the microscope slide area, and this contributes to its poor diagnostic

Deep-water gravity flow deposits in a lacustrine rift basin and their oil and gas geological significance in eastern China

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2021
The types, evolution processes, formation mechanisms, and depositional models of deep-water gravity flow deposits in a lacustrine rift basin are studied through core observation and systematic analysis.

Modeling Air Aspiration in Steel Continuous Casting Slide-Gate Nozzles

open access: yesMetals, 2021
Air aspiration is an important cause of nozzle clogging and inclusions in final products of continuous casting of steel due to the presence of metal oxides (such as alumina) which occur through the reoxidation of molten steel. This problem is most likely

Using Public Landslide Inventories for Landslide Susceptibility Assessment at the Basin Scale: Application to the Torto River Basin (Central-Northern Sicily, Italy)

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
In statistical landslide susceptibility evaluation, the quality of the model and its prediction image heavily depends on the quality of the landslide inventories used for calibration.

Seiches and the slide/seiche dynamics; subcritical and supercritical subaquous mass flows and their deposits. Examples from Swiss Lakes

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Geosciences, 2021
Four historically documented large and potentially dangerous lacustrine waves in Swiss lakes show that these waves have been seiches (standing waves) triggered by sublacustrine slides; a statement which is in accordance with the experience of ...
