BENCHMARKING LAVA FLOWS - BM3- HORIZONTAL COOLING VISCOUS SPREADING FROM A POINT SOURCE

26 Jun 2014 | Contributor(s): Fanny Garel, Benoit BJR Cordonnier, Einat Lev

The lava flow team has agreed on benchmarking series.Among which, benchmark #3 is the first to deal with a non-isothermal flow.It is a first step between the "spreading" benchmarks BM#1 and BM#2 and the "complex" lava benchmark BM#4 and BM#5.The benchmark BM#3 test deals with the spreading and...

BENCHMARKING LAVA FLOWS -BM2- INCLINED ISOTHERMAL VISCOUS SPREADING

26 Jun 2014 | Contributor(s): Fanny Garel, Benoit BJR Cordonnier, Einat Lev

The lava flow team has agreed on benchmarking series.Among which, benchmark #2 represents a benchmark test for an isothermal viscous flow on an inclined plane.This benchmark, combined with BM#1, is useful to test how well fast-computing models handle a simple viscous flow geometry.Flow...

26 May 2014 | Contributor(s): Benoit BJR Cordonnier, Einat Lev, Fanny Garel

The lava flow team has agreed on benchmarking series.Among which, benchmark #1 represents a dam break benchmark test. Flow Characteristics:Full ResolutionThe description of the test is fully dimensionless and based on existing rheological standards.The reservoir box is defined by its height (H)...

BENCHMARKING LAVA FLOWS -BM5 - ETNA 2001

04 Dec 2014 | Contributor(s): Benoit BJR Cordonnier, Einat Lev, Fanny Garel

The lava flow team has agreed on benchmarking series.Among which, benchmark #5 represents a natural lava flow test. This benchmark is inspired by the LSF1 lava flow of ETNA 2001 (e.g., Coltelli et al., 2007).Flow Characteristics:LFS1 covered 1.95 106 m2 for a total volume of 21.40 106 m3. The...
