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.

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.

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.

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

I'd like to contact the engineer and architect who made the taller house. It's safe, it lasted 10 minutes even everything surrounding it is falling apart, especially that cold-hearted yellow guy doing nothing to save other lives.

My first thought was I see a massive lawsuit against developers and county engineers for building and allowing construction on that kind of ‘ soil ‘ I also see one or two people being thrown under the bus to protect the true guilty parties , and I do include the builders/maintainers of the dam in that as well.
