Abstract: Abstract Fluid-dynamics is an important field of Cellular Automata applications, that give rise also to specialised models as lattice gas automata and lattice Boltzmann models. These models come up against difficulties for applications to large scale (kilometres) phenomena. Our research group Empedocles faces up to macroscopic phenomena concerning surface flows, developing an alternative strategy, that was significantly improved, introducing explicit velocities in own Cellular Automata models. This paper illustrates the methodology with applications to lava flows, debris flows and pyroclastic flows.
