Zusammenfassung: This book provides a summary of the state of the art of all facets of debris-flow science and practice and is designed to be a comprehensive technical reference for practitioners and a state-of-the-art research overview for scientists. It is richly illustrated with equations, graphs, photos, and tables. The book allows students, practitioners, and regulators to get a sense of the current state of the art in this science. Currently, there are 2 to 3 papers published every week on some aspects of debris-flow science. This creates a bewildering amount of literature that cannot be captured by a single individual. This book provides a comprehensive overview of all facets to date, including initial hazard assessments, detailed quantitative risk assessments, debris-flow warning systems, debris-flow mitigation structure designs, and failures of mitigation works, as well as new topics such as climate change effects on debris flows

Comprehensive account, treating both theoretical and applied aspects of debris flow. The text begins with a discussion of fundamental mechanical aspects, such as flow characteristics, type classification, mechanics, occurrence and development, fully-developed flow and deposition processes. The second part of the book sheds light on the application of theory in relation to computer-simulated reproductions of real disasters. Attention is paid to debris flow controlling structures, design effectiveness and performance, soft countermeasure problems, such as identification of debris flow prone ravines and the prediction of occurrence by the concept of precipitation threshold. The qualitative and fundamental character of this book makes it an excellent textbook for graduate courses in debris flow and it is recommended reading for professionals in engineering, geosciences and water resources who are concerned with mechanics and countermeasures of debris flow. Keywords: stony debris flow, viscous debris flo, landslide induced debris flow, hazard zone mapping, grid type sabo dam.

(Uncorrected OCR) MSc in Applied Geosciences MSc Dissertation Design of Barriers against Recurrent Debris Flows - Abstract Abstract The objective of this report is to investigate and examine the characterization of debris movement and to investigate the methodology in the design of debris-resisting barrier. Debris can be simply described as scattered broken pieces of geological materials with water and organic matters. Flows are the movement term that can be defined as continuous irreversible deformation of a geological material that occurs in response to an applied stress under gravity. Debris-resisting barrier can be provided as a mitigation measure on the existing undeveloped terrain to control the debris flows hazard. In Chapter 1, the recognition, initiation and major mechanism of debris flows are presented. In Chapter 2, the method characterization of debris movement is examined and the methodology in landslide hazard assessment is investigated. The landslide hazard assessment based on the characterization of debris movement is also reviewed including: runout distance of debris, debris flow velocity, runup distance of debris and debris impact load. In Chapter 3, the methods of debris flows identification, susceptibility assessment and natural terrain hazard assessment are described. In Chapter 4, the design methodology of reinforced concrete debris-resisting barrier is described. In Chapter 5, two case studies for the design of proposed reinforced concrete debris-resisting barrier are described. Chapter 6 discusses the overall procedure of design of debris-resisting barrier from the view of Burland's Triangle of soil mechanics. Also, recommendations for a better hazard assessment are also presented. Chapter 7 concludes the findings of the study. By CYH l.
