Large-scale physical modelling study of a flexible barrier under the impact of granular flows

<p>Flexible barriers are being increasingly applied to mitigate the danger of debris flows. However, how barriers can be better designed to withstand the impact loads of debris flows is still an open question in natural hazard engineering. Here we report an improved large-scale physical mod...
