Abstract

The formation process of rainfall-type debris flow is a complex nonlinear process of hydraulic coupling. Based on on-site investigation and data collection, this article analyzes the formation conditions of the Wenjiagou debris flow. Based on the CDEM, the finite volume method of depth integration was used to conduct an inversion analysis of the initiation and deposition process of the "8·13" debris flow. The results show that when the friction angle is 8° and the cohesion is 50Pa, the sediment concentration reaches 15% and a debris flow initially forms one hour after the rainfall. The deposition area is basically consistent with that of the "8·13" debris flow when the comprehensive friction coefficient was 3°.
