Flow modelling of submarine slides

Further activity will include numerical modeling of submarine clay-rich debris flows, modeling of sand rich debris flows (this part is related to Theme 1).

A modified version of the depth-integrated program BING (originally from St. Anthony Falls Labs, Minnesota) previously used for a series of projects will be rewritten in a more friendly fashion. Further, we will continue our ongoing studies on the mechanics of disintegration, break-up, and segregation in sub-aqueous slides.

Numerical studies on the flow of outrunner blocks will also be continued. We also plan to cooperate with project SP 9 (Carl Harbitz) on the problem of tsunami generation by submarine landslides.
