PyFlow

07 May 2014 | Contributor(s): Fabio Dioguardi, Pierfrancesco Dellino, Daniela Mele

PYFLOW is a multi-block code for the calculation of the flow field variables of dilute pyroclasticdensity currents (hereafter DPDCs) starting from the deposits characteristics. The code, written inFortran 90, solves an improved version of the model of Dellino et al. (2008): it calculates...

PYFLOW_2.0. A new tool for estimating the impact parameters and the deposition rate and time of dilute PDCs based on field data

22 Nov 2017 | Contributor(s): Fabio Dioguardi, Daniela Mele, Pierfrancesco Dellino

PYFLOW_2.0 is a hazard tool for the calculation of the impact parameters of dilute pyroclastic density currents (DPDCs). DPDCs represent the dilute turbulent type of gravity flows that occur during explosive volcanic eruptions; their hazard is the result of their mobility and the capability...

Pyroclastic density currents and local topography as seen with the conveyer model

15 Apr 2014 | Publications | Contributor(s): Domenico M. Doronzo

Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are multiphase flows generated during explosive volcanic eruptions, and they move down the volcano, and over the surrounding topography. The flow-topography interaction can play a fundamental role in the sedimentary processes, and in the resulting deposit...

Q-LavHA 2.2.1.

20 Feb 2017 | Offline Tools | Contributor(s): Sophie Mossoux, Mathijs Saey, Stefania Bartolini, Sam Poppe, Frank Canters, Matthieu Kervyn

Q-LavHA (Mossoux et al. 2016) is a plugin which simulates lava flow propagation from one or multiple regularly distributed eruptive vents on a Digital Elevation Model (DEM). It combines existing probabilistic and 1D thermo-rheological deterministic (FLOWGO) models and proposes improvements in...

Questionnaire on decision-makers' needs

10 May 2013 | Miscellaneous | Contributor(s): Stefano Ciolli

This questionnaire, developed within the task 9.2 of the VUELCO project, is to be submitted to decision-makers, in order to better understand how their organizations work, what their needs are toward the scientific community and which kind of mitigation measures they adopted in past crisis...

Reflections on the L'Aquila verdict - A candid risk assessment of the role of the earth scientist and some suggestions for risk management (VUELCO Barcelona 2013)

20 Mar 2013 | Presentations | Contributor(s): Richard Bretton, Jo Gottsmann, Robert Stephen Sparks

The scientific community's public reaction to the conviction and sentencing of seven Italian scientists was immediate, passionate and, too large extent, ill-informed. The after-shock waves were predictable; the Twitter feeds, blogs and press releases vitriolic. There was unanimity that we were...

Regression on Ice: Function approximation for the mathematically-inclined glaciologist

17 Sep 2023 | Educational Materials | Contributor(s): Noah J Bergam

Modern satellite-based analysis of the ice sheets presents a profound statistical-geometric problem: how do we make sense of scattered, noisy measurements of vast, steadily evolving surfaces like the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets? In these lecture notes, I attempt to provide the...
