Fig. 11

Influence of middle dam height on the overtopping failure process of cascade landslide dams: (a) Breach flow of Dam 1; (b) Breach flow of Dam 2; (c) Breach flow of Dam 3; (d) Characteristic values of breach flow for Dam 1; (e) Characteristic values of breach flow for Dam 2; (f) Characteristic values of breach flow for Dam 3; (g) Residual breach dimensions for Dam 1; (h) Residual breach dimensions for Dam 2; (i) Residual breach dimensions for Dam 3. Qp represents the peak flow rate, and tp represents the time to peak flow.
