Flow-like landslides are rapidly moving fluid–solid mixtures that can cause significant destruction along paths that run far from their original sources. Existing models for run out prediction and motion simulation of flow-like landslides have many limitations. In this paper, we develop a new method named ‘Tsunami Squares’ to simulate the generation, propagation and stoppage of flow-like …

On December 4, 2007, a three million cubic metres landslide impacted Chehalis Lake, 80 km east ofVancouver, Canada. The failed mass rushed into the lake and parented a tsunami that ran up 38m on the opposite shore, destroyed trees, roads and campsite facilities. Armed with field surveys and multihigh-tech observations from SONAR, LiDAR and orthophotographs, we apply the newly developed ‘Tsun…
