Overview
- Laying a mathematical foundation for the readers to formulate thin flows over non-trivial topography
- Stimulating practical examples and event back-calculations to demonstrate the applications of the models
- Highly beneficial to engineers and public servants who are involved in hazard mitigation projects
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
Part of the book series: Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics (AGEM)
