• Emerging insights into the dynamics of submarine debris flows 

      Elverhøi, Anders; Issler, Dieter; De Blasio, Fabio V.; Ilstad, Trygve; Harbitz, Carl Bonnevie; Gauer, Peter (Journal article, 2005)
      Recent experimental and theoretical work on the dynamics of submarine debris flows is summarized. Hydroplaning was first discovered in laboratory flows and later shown to likely occur in natural debris flows as well. It ...
    • A model for frictional melt production beneath large rock avalanches 

      De Blasio, Fabio Vittorio; Elverhøi, Anders (Journal article, 2008)
      Two puzzling traits of giant rock avalanches (sturzstroms) are the decrease of the effective friction coefficient as a function of the volume (volume effect) and the remarkable preservation of large geological structures ...
    • Submarine landslides and the importance of the initial sediment composition for run-out length and final deposit 

      Elverhøi, Anders; Breien, Hedda; De Blasio, Fabio V; Harbitz, Carl Bonnevie; Pagliardi, M. (Journal article, 2010)
      Much remains to understand the dynamic processes during the flow of submarine landslides. A first relevant problem is to explain the extraordinary mobility of submarine landslides, which has no comparison in subaerial mass ...
