The dynamic behaviour of the liquid and granular phases is simulated following two alternative approaches: by treating them as slightly compressible fluids whose motion results from the numerical solution of the continuity and momentum equations according to the standard SPH formulation; by describing the evolution of the interface between the two phases (i.e. the erosion process) as a transport diffusion phenomenon. The main features of the model are presented first and then the numerical results for representative experimental test cases are discussed and compared with available experimental data.
