Abstract

We present a framework for modeling a dry geophysical mass of granular material - a debris or volcanic avalanche or landslide - flowing over an erodible surface. We also describe a computing environment that incorporates topographical data into a parallel, adaptive mesh computational algorithm that solves the model equations.
