Application of "shallow-water" numerical models for hazard assessment of volcanic flows: the case of titan2d and Turrialba volcano (Costa Rica)

This paper introduces Titan2D, a depth averaged model of an incompressible Coulomb continuum for "shallow water" granular flows. Titan2D has been used successfully at many volcanoes to predict inundation by block-and-ash flows and debris avalanches. It can be run as a stand-alone program o...
