A review of depth-averaged models for dry granular flows: Savage-Hutter and μ(I)-rheology

Abstract

In this work we present a review of the most popular depth-averaged models to simulate dry granular flows such as aerial avalanches. The classical Savage-Hutter model and recent ones using a μ(I)-rheology law are studied. The objective is firstly to point out the advantages of each such models and secondly to understand how the hypothesis considered in the derivation process influence on the final system.
