Mathematical Model for Calculating the Volume of Mudflow

In relation with the mountainous relief of the territory of Georgia, the prevalence and frequency of erosion-avalanche phenomena, due to both exogenous-endogenous processes and anthropogenic-climatic conditions, have been studied. The article proposes a mathematical model for calculating the volume of mudflow mass, which provides for both an increase and a decrease in the mass of the mixture when the mud flows in the watercourse. The coefficients of increasing and decreasing its mass are calculated for various types and movements of the mudflow. The proposed methods make it possible to determine not only the total volume of removal, but also the geometrical dimensions of the area, taking into account the morphological parameters of the mudflow channel, which is very important for predicting negative environmental impact and for determining effective anti-mudflow measures.
