A Unique Multi-Functions Large-Scale Physical Model Testing Facility for Study of the Impact of Debris Flow on Flexible Barriers and Geo-Hazards in Hong Kong

Geo-hazards include landslides, debris flows, rock falls, collapse of all types of geotechnical structures, which can pose great danger to human life and property/infrastructures. The primary objective of the project, led by Ir Prof. Yin Jianhua, was to design, build, test, and manage a unique multi-function large-scale physical model testing facility with instrumentation and accessories for studying the impact of debris flow on flexible barriers and other geo-hazards in Hong Kong.
