Rockfall causes a large number of accidents and fatalities in steep environments. A realistic
quantification of rockfall risk is thus crucial for an effective prevention of damages and loss of …

At present, a quantitative basis for delimiting realistic rockfall runout zones on the basis of
trajectory simulation data is generally missing. The objective of this study is to come up with …

Rockfall frequently occurs in the mountainous areas and threatens structures such as
settlement areas, transportation lines, and agricultural field. The empirical approaches for …

Rockfalls have a tremendous effect on development plans in mountainous regions. Both civil
structures and lives are at risk from rockfalls. Frequent failure, rather than the size of a …

In order to study the influence of falling rock shapes on their rolling characteristics and to
determine the optimization of falling rock protection design, a series of research experiments …

Dans les territoires de montagne, le risque généré par les aléas rocheux, notamment les
chutes de blocs, est d'une importance centrale pour les populations ainsi que pour les …
