Scaling between volume and runout of rock avalanches explained by a modified Voellmy rheology
<p>Rock avalanches reach considerably greater runout lengths than predicted by Coulomb friction. While it has been known for a long time that runout length increases with volume, explaining the increase qualitatively is still a challenge. In this study, the widely used Voellmy rheology is rein...
