Published in 2021 at "Journal of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering"

DOI: 10.1007/s40430-021-03178-z

Abstract: This study presents a methodology using the correlation of numerical diffusion with the standard two-fluid model to simulate the separated two-phase flow (gas–liquid) in a pipe. Firstly, different numerical schemes are examined to investigate the… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Engineering Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.enggeo.2017.09.017

Abstract: Abstract Damages caused by landslides have been increasing because of the greater frequency of localized heavy rain. To prevent landslide disasters more efficiently, more studies in relation to predicting the initiation areas of debris flows… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences"

DOI: 10.5194/nhess-25-4843-2025

Abstract: Abstract. The Southern Andes is an active zone of mass wasting processes with unknown constraints for public policies. Several conditioning factors could have an impact on the generation of debris flows, being controlled by water… read more here.
