This book describes erosion and debris flow-type waterways in Georgia, assessing the risks of those formed in the mountain landscapes of Georgia and calculating the material and economic damage caused by the debris flow.In order to effectively regulate debris flows, the book presents innovative environmental protection structures, the scientific-technical priorities of which are also certified by relevant patents. In order to design innovative debris flow control structures, theoretical, laboratory and field studies have been conducted, through which the book is able to calculate the dynamic and static loads acting on the structures and use this data to determine the reliability and risk of it.
