Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
We have utilized fundamentally new and physically based modeling and simulation methods suitable for general two-phase debris flows. We have presented several novel models by extending the two-phase debris flow model. This includes rock-ice avalanche model capable of performing dynamic strength weakening and internal mass/momentum exchanges. We have addressed several issues by presenting mechanical two-phase erosion and phase-separation models solving some long standing problems in mass flows. These novel models are capable of generating first-ever erosion-deposition patterns and phase-separation and levee formation in two-phase debris flows. We have conducted large number of experiments in a large-scale inclined chute with run-out and produced extensive data sets as required for validating two-phase mass flow model and our computational tool, r.avaflow. Ultrasonic and pressure sensors were utilized to measure the flow depth and normal force that enabled us to estimate the bulk density evolution. We conducted further experiments to investigate entrainment processes and showed that increased water content dramatically magnified erosion resulting in immediate debris flooding. The novel experimental results provided profound insights in to the relationship between material composition, grain size, friction and their effects on flow dynamics and deposition fans including entrainment. We have developed an innovative, user-friendly and very efficient open source computational software, r.avaflow, for routing two-phase mass flows from a release area down an arbitrary complex topography to a deposition. r.avaflow is well calibrated, physically constrained, robust and advanced computational tool. We are extending r.avaflow to include physics-based erosion/deposition and phase separation mechanisms. r.avaflow is being used internationally in different universities and public services for hazard mitigation, early warning and planning. We are continuously maintaining the web page of r.avaflow, and providing supports for the international users. We have validated r.avaflow with several complex natural events. Our results demonstrate the general ability of r.avaflow to reproduce the evolution of flow heights, velocities, travel times and volumes reasonably well.
