The applied model for the turbidity current HMBreach is a 1DH 2-layer model for stationary non-uniform depth averaged flow. It was developed at Deltreas Deltares (former WL | Delft Hydraulics) for dredging applications and validated with flume tests. The slope development and stability during sand suction (“breaching”) in specific sand layers from a bore hole is predicted. The model was applied to turbidity currents in submarine canyons (Scripps Canyon) in collaboration with University of Utrecht. Ref. [Mastbergen & Van Den Berg, 2003]
