Abstract:Large amplitude and unexpected waves are a regular source of natural disasters. Among them, impulse waves generated by landslides can represent a significant threat. Therefore, predicting and measuring the generation of such waves is essential. In this study, the phenomenon is modeled by a 2D‐experimental setup using a steady non‐uniform granular flow along a slope as a forcing wave generator. The present device provides a continuous supply of grains to avoid finite volume effects, as the part of the landslide… Show more
