ABSTRACT Kim, S.;Lee, H., and Jun, K.W., 2016. The impacts of debris torrents in Caribbean coast of Honduras, Central America. In: Vila-Concejo, A.; Bruce, E.; Kennedy, D.M., and McCarroll, R.J. (eds.), Proceedings of the 14th International Coastal Symposium (Sydney, Australia). Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue, No. 75, pp. 1347–1351. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. One of the main contributing factors in creating debris torrents is heavy rainfall. Global climate changes have led to an increase in localized downpours, causing an increase in torrent occurrences as well. The purpose of this experiment is to utilize numerical simulation for the analysis of debris torrents in their behaviour and mechanism. The numerical simulation is comprised of equations calculating mass continuity and momentum in order to consider erosion, deposition, and the combination of them both. The Finite Difference Method is applied to analyze the debris torrents. The numerical model of present study was applied ...
