Power laws fit to rockfall frequency-magnitude distributions are commonly used to
summarize rockfall inventories, but uncertainty remains regarding which variables control …

Rockfall poses risk to people, their properties and to transportation ways in mountainous
and hilly regions. This catastrophe shows various characteristics such as vast distribution …

In the mountainous areas passed by the Sichuan–Tibet Railway, rockfall is one of the
important geological hazards with characteristics of unpredictable and sudden occurrences …

Landslides are major threats to the construction and operation of electric towers of the
Sichuan–Tibet Grid Interconnection Project (STGIP). The long, narrow project corridor is …

Rockfall source areas identification of high steep fractured rock slope is a challenging task
for hazard mitigation. Considering this difficulty, a new method integrating discontinuity …

In recent years, there was an increasing number of studies focusing on rockfalls due to their
impacts on social and sustainable development. This work carries out a three-dimensional …

Fragmentation is a common feature of rockfall that exerts a strong control on the trajectories
of the generated blocks, the impact energies, and the runout. In this paper, we present a set …

This paper presents a procedure for tracking rockfall trajectories and extracting kinematic
parameters from both the impacts and the resultant fragments. A set of full scale rockfall …

An example of the combined use of UAV photogrammetry and rockfall numerical simulation
is described. A case of fragmental rockfall occurred on 17 November 2018 in Cárcavos, a …

Rockfalls are frequent geodisasters, characterized by gravity driven downslope movement of
a solid mass of rock. The kinematics of rocks is heavily dependent on their shape, which …
