I saw this house once that was literally built on sand. I was called out to help figure out their drain issues, and their sewer line had sunk and filled up with sand. I saw another house that was built in basically a giant puddle. Any amount of rain and the entire yard floods. His bedroom is falling off the side of his house like a wet graham cracker...

Ye that's a good point but i am not sure that's the primary source of inaccuracy of the model. Flood water does get dirty though the edges with surface tension wouldn't scale the same. I think I am more concerned with the fact that the model depicts trees and plants as a load on the soil because there are no roots. Vegetation has the opposite effect, where it helps retain soil during a flood though of course at a certain point I guess it's all going wrong if you build a house on sand where it can flood. I like how you can see the lens of water under ground though.

Essentially, you are recreating what happened to the town of Port Royal, Jamaica in the Golden Age of Piracy. Built entirely on a sandbar, one earthquake liquefacts the sandbar, the whole town gets swallowed by the sand, along with a lot of the people in it, and half the town just slides the hell into the ocean while the rest gets slammed with a tsunami.

I remember doing a similar build when demonstrating to some students in the science department the importance of understanding WHERE you're building and the surrounding water/climate processes that could lead to ground inundation and severe flooding. We used toothpicks to be the "trees" to try and hold the sand together better. Essentially they were designing cities, and we were trying to come up with ways to deal with flooding. Vegetation/trees and so on are some of the best because of root systems holding on to dirt but they aren't a sure-fire thing. We also added rocks into our mix. Overall it was a good visual representation of the destruction water can do.

The speed with which things went down hill alarmingly fast, was the moment the water broke to the other side. The rate that liquefaction of the sand took place at was a tremendous force and one that happens here on earth. What a fantastic little model. Some aggregate stone and other loose binding materials to more accurately replicate earth environments maybe interesting as you move along from the coastland further in-land. Just a thought. Good stuff !

This was cool and clever version of your thing. May I suggest something? Build the houses from the bricks so there could be more eventful and "realistic" collapses. I personally would like to see how different (brick) foundations would affect their flood resistance. Also the roof could consist of smaller pieces so it wouldn't be so big chunk at once. What do you think?

I've seen a lot of roofs float away as more or less whole pieces in flood videos before. Not sure why, but I did a bunch of roofing back in the day. Best guess, the various interlocking pieces (beams under plywood, plywood covered by shingles) gives more area stress can be distributed across without breaking the roof a whole up. Like a piece of wet wood bending instead of breaking all at once.

Is it possible to rerun this experiment with Simulated "Deep Root" infrastructure? Like either Deep root plants on the hillside/around the houses or Pile driven poles sunk deep into the earth to add further stability? To show possible safety measures that can be taken to prevent this kind of scenario?

@@tedgerahedron simulating would be faster and probably cheaper. To get a proper simulation, you would have to let the roots really spread out, and the fake stuff wouldnt be at risk of dying after the experiement. But yes, its something they could do

@@dkakito well yea and at that point with such an inconsistent variable it would almost be easier to go to a shoreline before tide with pre-existing vegetation and then just match the scale to the tide variation you get during the experiment because at that point we are basically taking an external variable with data and building an experiment around it So that's a great sign....

This commentary brought to you by National Geographic In the quick aftermath of the Lego City Dam failure on February 12th, 2003, two residential structures were damaged by the flood. At the time the two homes were built in an ideal setting, however the subsequent failure of the dam up stream proved a sudden increase of water flow into a reservoir would massively change the expected shoreline. Currently ordinances require that no structures be built near the shores upstream of a dam, and levees must be constructed along the shore line to decrease water damage and erosion to structures and their foundations.

The simulation doesn't 100 % true. Sand can't represent the soil, because the compound materials are different. Soil more stronger and solid than sand if there are some plants, grass, and trees on it. The roots automatically hold the land from abrasion.

Would you class this as a dam failure? I wouldn’t! It held water until 101% capacity, most dams would fail well before that, sure structural integrity failed in forward parts of the dam, but all in all, what killed the dam was the overflow, something IRL dams have safety measures to prevent such as spillways etc
