The evolution of a submarine landslide is a very complicated process due to slurry–water interactions. Most previous studies have focused on debris flows or turbidity currents independently.

Laboratory Investigation of the Parameters of the Submerged Plates on the Turbidity Currents Characteristics [PDF]
In dam reservoirs, the turbidity current is usually the cause of sediment transfer and deposition. Therefore, it is necessary to study this phenomenon.

Longitudinal flow evolution and turbulence structure of dynamically similar, sustained, saline density and turbidity currents [PDF]
Experimental results are presented concerning flow evolution and turbulence structure of sustained saline and turbidity flows generated on 0°, 3°, 6°, and 9° sloping ramps that terminate abruptly onto a horizontal floor.

Self-stratifying turbidity currents
Turbidity currents, seafloor flows driven by the excess density of suspended particles, are key conveyors of sediment, nutrient, and pollutant from the continental margins to deep ocean, and pose critical submarine geohazard risks. Due to their vast scale and extreme aspect ratio, extant models are constrained to highly simplified depth-averaged theory

Relating the Flow Processes and Bedforms of Steady-State and Waning Density Currents
The interaction between turbidity currents and mobile substrates can lead to the development of different types of bedforms. Although much research has been conducted on bedform development beneath open channel flows, research into bedform development ...

The role of intratidal oscillations in sediment resuspension in a diurnal, partially mixed estuary [PDF]
Using detailed observations of the mean and turbulent properties of flow, salinity and turbidity that spanned 2001/02, we examined the physical mechanisms underpinning sediment resuspension in the low-energy Swan River estuary, Western Australia. In this

One-dimensional morphodynamic model coupling open-channel flow and turbidity current in reservoir
Traditional depth-averaged morphodynamic models for turbidity currents usually focus on the propagation of currents after plunging. However, owing to the unsteady characteristic of the plunge point locations and the tough conditions of field measurement ...

Tunable high-index photonic glasses [PDF]
Materials with extreme photonic properties such as maximum diffuse reflectance, high albedo, or tunable band gaps are essential in many current and future photonic devices and coatings.
