Benchmarking computational fluid dynamics models of lava flow simulation for hazard assessment, forecasting, and risk management

Abstract Numerical simulations of lava flow emplacement are valuable for assessing lava flow hazards, forecasting active flows, designing flow mitigation measures, interpreting past eruptions, and understanding the controls on lava flow behavior. Existing lava flow models vary in simplifying assumpt...
