Abstract

Landslides, debris flows and avalanches often exhibit strong segregation during flow and deposition. The largest particles are usually found at the nose of the avalanche, with moderate sized particles at the free surface, and smaller particles at the base of the flow. At the same time, we know that the constitutive behaviour of such a system is strongly influenced by the local average grainsize. In numerical modelling of these flows, the coupling of the spatial heterogeneity and constitutive behaviour has heretofore only been weakly coupled, if addressed at all. Here, we will present a unified framework for coupling the feedback between these two phenomena using the material point method. Several examples of landslide propagation will be investigated. The effect of flow lubrication via segregation will be highlighted.
