In this paper we study a numerical method for the simulation of free surface ows of viscoplastic (Herschel-Bulkley) uids. The approach is based on the level set method for capturing the free surface evolution and on locally rened and dynamically adapted octree cartesian staggered grids for the discretization of uid and level set equations. A regularized model is applied to handle the non-dierentiabil ity of the constitutive relations. We consider an extension of the stable approximation of the Newtonian ow equations on staggered grid to approximate the viscoplastic model and level-set equations if the free boundary evolves and the mesh is dynamically rened or coarsened. The numerical method is rst validated for a Newtonian case. In this case, the convergence of numerical solutions is observed towards experimental data when the mesh is rened. Further we compute several 3D viscoplastic Herschel-Bulkley uid ows over incline planes for the
