Landslide tsunamis represent a highly complex fluid-solid interaction process and this complexity is one of the challenges in researching landslide disasters. Given the characteristics of landslide tsunamis, a coupled smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH)-discrete element method (DEM) code was devel...
