Sinopsis de Debris-flow hazards mitigation: mechanics, prediction, and assessment

The proceedings entitled, Debris-Flow Hazards Mitigation: Mechanics, Prediction, and Assessment, contain papers presented at the Third International Conference held in Davos, Switzerland, September 10-12, 2003. The papers cover a wide range of topics on debris flows, including the analysis of debris-flow occurrence, initiation, mechanics, rheology, deposition, observations and measurements in the field and in the laboratory, methods for hazards prediction and assessment as well as countermeasures thereof. The papers reflect the latest developments and advances in debris-flow research. Several studies discuss the development and application of simulation models for the initiation, propagation, and stopping processes of debris flows. Timely topics presented in the papers also include the development of new or innovative techniques for debris-flow monitoring, hazard alert systems, and the assessment of watersheds with respect...
