This study investigates the dynamics of granular flows in geotechnical centrifuge models, focusing on the effects of centrifugal and Coriolis accelerations. While conventional laboratory-scale investigations often rely on Froude scaling, geotechnical...

Continuum modelling of a just-saturated inertial column collapse: capturing fluid-particle interaction (2024)

This work presents a simple two-phase flow model to analyse a series of axisymmetric granular column collapse tests conducted under elevated gravitational accelerations. These columns were prepared with a just-saturated condition, where the granular...
