Abstract

The effect on the eruption process of water or steam injection into a volcanic conduit from an adjacent water-saturated stratum is studied. Both steady-state and unsteady processes are considered. The physical characteristics of these eruptions are identified. A mathematical model of such an eruption is proposed for the first time.
