  abstract: Turbidite sandstone successions are common elements of the stratigraphic content of sedimentary basins, and are important hydrocarbon reservoirs in many parts of the world. This book addresses the important issue of mass-flow sedimentation modelling in the framework of basin-fill dynamics and sequence stratigraphy. The proposed computer algorithm, based on the slope instability criterion and DEMOSTRAT's diffusion equation, can be used to predict the timing and spatial effects of mass-flow sedimentation in a sedimentary basin under conditions specified by the modeller. This volume is for researchers, lecturers and postgraduate students. It will be of particular interest to petroleum geologists and those working for oil companies concerned with exploration of deep-marine siliciclastic successions for hydrocarbon reserves.
  table of contents: Sediment instability on subaqueous slopes -- Postfailure evolution of sediment mass movement -- Stratigraphic modelling of massflows: Literature review -- Description of the algorithms used to model massflows in DEMOSTRAT -- Synthetic simulations -- Discussion -- Conclusions.
