  1. 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...

    This workshop aimed at developing research priorities and initial design concepts for an international user facility for large-scale experimentation on volcanic processes.Agenda .pdfPresentationsIntroduction by Greg Valentine .pdf .movIntegrating numerical and laboratory models of explosive...

  3. Probabilistic hazard maps of pyroclastic density currents in the Long Valley Volcanic Region

    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...

  4. 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...

  5. 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...

  6. 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.
