Cellular Automaton for Realistic Modelling of Landslides

نویسنده

چکیده

A numerical model is developed for the simulation of debris flow in landslides over a complex three dimensional topography. The model is based on a lattice, in which debris can be transferred among nearest neighbors according to established empirical relationships for granular flows. The model is then validated by comparing a simulation with reported field data. Our model is in fact a realistic elaboration of simpler “sandpile automata”, which have in recent years been studied as supposedly paradigmatic of “self-organized criticality”. Statistics and scaling properties of the simulation are examined, and show that the model has an intermittent behavior.

Modelling a Sand Pile Application Using Cell-DEVS

Cell-DEVS formalism extends cellular automata modeling. In this paper, we present a simple model for landslides using a model of a sand pile. The model uses Cell-DEVS formalism and CD++ tool to model and simulate landslides. Using this simple model, we present how Cell-DEVS formalism can be used to model systems that involve material accumulation and flow. Material flow and accumulation need sp...

Recurrence time distribution and temporal clustering properties of a cellular automaton modelling landslide events

Reasonable prediction of landslide occurrences in a given area requires the choice of an appropriate probability distribution of recurrence time intervals. Although landslides are widespread and frequent in many parts of the world, complete databases of landslide occurrences over large periods are missing and often such natural disasters are treated as processes uncorrelated in time and, theref...

Application Context of the SCIDDICA Model Family for Simulations of Flow-Like Landslides

Cellular Automata (CA) are parallel computing models whose evolution is governed by purely local laws. The global dynamics of complex systems simulated by means of CA emerges from the local interactions of their elementary components. Some macroscopic natural phenomena are included in the class of such complex systems. Among them, of particular interest are several W\SHVRI³VXUIDFHIORZV´ where t...

3D numerical modelling of submerged and coastal landslide propagation

The analysis of the propagation phase plays a fundamental role in the assessment and forecasting of risks related to the occurrence of submerged and coastal landslides. At present there are few numerical models able to simulate the propagation of such a type of events. This paper presents fully 3D models and approaches developed by the authors and suitable for the simulation of both completely ...

A Cellular Automaton Based Algorithm for Mobile Sensor Gathering

In this paper we proposed a Cellular Automaton based local algorithm to solve the autonomously sensor gathering problem in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (MWSN). In this problem initially the connected mobile sensors deployed in the network and goal is gather all sensors into one location. The sensors decide to move only based on their local information. Cellular Automaton (CA) as dynamical sy...
