Shallow Geophysical Mass Flows down Arbitrary Topography Model Equat
Geophysical mass flows, such as landslides, avalanches or debris flows, are frequent mass movement processes in mountain areas and often cause disastrous damage. This book lays a foundation for formulating the depth-averaged equations describing the shall

Preface
The topic in the book was initiated by the long-term collaboration with Prof. Kolumban Hutter. He was consecutively invited to visit Academia Sinica, National Chi Nan University and National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan, between 2006 and 2009. During his stay and his frequent guiding communications, the research direction was planned and the ingredients were set up. The work was about the mathematical description of shallow geophysical mass flows on realistic topographies. Significant progress towards this topic
