Effect of surface solidification on the emplacement of lava flows on a slope

The emplacement dynamics of lava flows on a slope is investigated using theoretical analyses and laboratory experiments for the case where a fixed volume of lava is rapidly released and propagates downhill as a two‐dimensional flow. When the lava has no internal yield strength, we identify four dyna...
