Numerical validation of novel scaling laws for air entrainment in water (2021)
Journal Article

The Froude scaling laws have been used to model a wide range of water flows at reduced size for almost a century. In such Froude scale models, significant scale effects for air-water flows (e.g. hydraulic jumps or wave breaking) are typically observe...

A numerical investigation of tsunamis impacting dams (2021)
Journal Article

Landslides, rockfalls, and iceberg calving impacting into a water body generate large landslide-tsunamis posing a serious hazard in lakes and reservoirs. These waves can impact and even overtop dams as in the 1963 Vajont disaster in Italy. However, e... Read More about A numerical investigation of tsunamis impacting dams.

A glacier–ocean interaction model for tsunami genesis due to iceberg calving (2021)
Journal Article

Glaciers calving icebergs into the ocean significantly contribute to sea-level rise and can trigger tsunamis, posing severe hazards for coastal regions. Computational modeling of such multiphase processes is a great challenge involving complex solid–... Read More about A glacier–ocean interaction model for tsunami genesis due to iceberg calving.

Numerical characterisation and efficient prediction of landslide-tsunami propagation over a wide range of idealised bathymetries (2021)
Journal Article

Landslide-tsunamis are generated by masses, such as landslides or icebergs, impacting into water bodies. Such tsunamis resulted in major catastrophes in the recent past. Generic research into landslide-tsunamis has widely been conducted in idealised...
