Abstract

Rapid shallow granular free surface flows occur when a surface layer of static granular material becomes unstable or when granular material is released by some mechanism onto an inclined surface. They are abundant all around us from salt in a salt cellar and flow at. the free surface of stockpiles, to landslides, rock-falls and snow slab avalanches. Although the length scales vary dramatically the dynamics of the avalanches. are similar.KeywordsShock WaveDebris FlowGranular MaterialGranular FlowPlane Shock WaveThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
