    08 Aug 2019 | Contributor(s):: Regis Rutarindwa, Elaine Spiller, Andrea Bevilacqua, Marcus I Bursik, Abani Patra

    This is a repository of the maps and graphs of PDC inundation probability distributions and related uncertainty indices for the Long Valley volcanic region, according to the physical and statistical model in: Regis Rutarindwa, Elaine T. Spiller, Andrea Bevilacqua, Marcus I. Bursik, and Abani...

  2. PYFLOW_2.0. A new tool for estimating the impact parameters and the deposition rate and time of dilute PDCs based on field data

    22 Nov 2017 | Contributor(s):: Fabio Dioguardi, Daniela Mele, Pierfrancesco Dellino

    PYFLOW_2.0 is a hazard tool for the calculation of the impact parameters of dilute pyroclastic density currents (DPDCs). DPDCs represent the dilute turbulent type of gravity flows that occur during explosive volcanic eruptions; their hazard is the result of their mobility and the capability...

  3. ASHEE

    14 Aug 2015 | Contributor(s):: Matteo Cerminara, Tomaso Esposti Ongaro

    A fluid-dynamic model is developed to numerically simulate the non-equilibrium dynamics of polydisperse gas-particle mixtures forming volcanic plumes. Starting from the three-dimensional N-phase Eulerian transport equations for a mixture of gases and solid particles, we adopt an asymptotic...

  4. Pyroclastic density currents and local topography as seen with the conveyer model

    15 Apr 2014 | Contributor(s):: Domenico M. Doronzo

    Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are multiphase flows generated during explosive volcanic eruptions, and they move down the volcano, and over the surrounding topography. The flow-topography interaction can play a fundamental role in the sedimentary processes, and in the resulting deposit...

  5. TITAN2D References

    22 Jan 2011 | | Contributor(s):: Sarah Elizabeth Ogburn

    Contains a list of references about TITAN2D, specifically a list of volcanoes and types of flows for which it has been used.
