Discharge rate of explosive volcanic eruption controls runout distance of pyroclastic density currents

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceWe address, through quantitative analysis of results from independent studies, the control of the discharge rate of explosive volcanic eruptions on the runout distance of highly hazardous pyroclastic density currents.

A numerical investigation of constant-volume non-Boussinesq density currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The time-dependent behaviour of non-Boussinesq high-Reynolds-number density currents of density ρc, released from a lock of height h₀ and length x₀ into a ambient of height H and density ρₐ, is considered. We use two dimensional Navier-Stokes simulations

Behaviours of pyroclastic and analogue materials, in dry and wet environments, for use in experimental modelling of pyroclastic density currents [PDF]

open access: yes
Modelling pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) is a challenging yet essential element of hazard assessment. PDCs are unpredictable and internal processes are often difficult to measure directly.

Explaining the origin of deposit-derived pyroclastic density currents

open access: yesBulletin of Volcanology
Abstract Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) generated by the collapse of incandescent volcanic deposits represent a widespread but poorly understood hazard at active volcanoes. Their dynamics remain less constrained than those of dome- or column-collapse PDCs.

Transient Dynamics in Particle‐laden Density Currents: Insights Into Dilute Pyroclastic Density Current Runout

open access: yes
Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are complex, multiphase systems where density strati cation controls the ows' mixing, deposition, and runout, presenting signi cant challenges in hazard forecasting.

Interaction between pyroclastic density currents and buildings: Numerical simulation and first experiments

open access: yes, 2011
The interaction between pyroclastic density currents and buildings is investigated by means of numerical simulation and large-scale experiments. Numerical simulation is performed with the Euler-Lagrange approach using a two-way coupling between gas and ...

Turbulent particle-gas feedback exacerbates the hazard impacts of pyroclastic density currents [PDF]

open access: yes
Causing one-third of all volcanic fatalities, pyroclastic density currents create destruction far beyond our current scientific explanation. Opportunities to interrogate the mechanisms behind this hazard have long been desired, but pyroclastic density ...
