What exactly happens when a landslide hits a lake and generates a tsunami? In this @NatureComms paper we get some new insights with a novel @openfoam model. @InfoNGI @UniOslo @uniinnsbruck @Vedurstofan @FinnLovholt nature.com/articles/s4146… Details for nerds below ;) /1

We use the @openfoam multiphase solver and a simple but effective rheology for the landslide (critical state theory, mu(I)-rheology, Ergun drag law). The model considers porosity, water permeability, pore pressure effects and complex wave dynamics. 2/7
