KEY POINTS • The two-phase depth-integrated model by Di Cristo et al. (2016) is adopted for simulating some laboratory tests. • The experiments reproduce the impact of a dam- break wave, with its successive reflections, on a steep slope erodible embankment. • The numerical and experimental free surface profiles are in good agreement, while simulations are not able to capture some peculiar features of the sand bank erosion process.
