Evaluating earthquake-induced rockfall hazard near the Dead Sea Transform [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019 We address an approach for rockfall hazard evaluation where the study area resides below a cliff in an a priori exposure to rockfall hazard, but no historical documentation of rockfall events is available and hence important rockfall hazard parameters ...

Rockfall analyses and rockfall protection at the Raspadalica Rockfall, Croatia
, 2022 The Raspadalica rockfall is well known location with numerous rockfall occurrences from 100 m high limestone cliff in the past that caused significant damages and victims at the railway Buzet - Pula in Istria, Croatia. Structural and kinematic analysis of possible future rockfall were carried out following the modern approaches and recent techniques in

Fragmented Rockfall Volume Distribution from Photogrammetry-Based Structural Mapping and Discrete Fracture Networks [PDF]
, 2020 The design of rockfall protection structures requires information about the falling block volumes. Computational tools for rockfall trajectory simulation are now capable of modeling block fragmentation, requiring the fragmented volume-relative frequency ...

Surface Reconstruction for Three-Dimensional Rockfall Volumetric Analysis [PDF]
, 2019 Laser scanning is routinely being used for the characterization and management of rockfall hazards. A key component of many studies is the ability to use the high-resolution topographic datasets for detailed volume estimates.

Forensic analysis of rockfall scars [PDF]
Geomorphology, 2017 Abstract We characterise and analyse the detachment (scar) surfaces of rockfalls to understand the mechanisms that underpin their failure. Rockfall scars are variously weathered and comprised of both discontinuity release surfaces and surfaces indicative of fracturing through zones of previously intact rock, known as rock bridges.

Is climate change causing increased rockfall frequency in Austria? [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2012 Potentially, increasing rockfall hazards triggered by climate change are a major concern expressed both in scientific and non-scientific media. An existing rockfall inventory for Austria including 252 events from ca.

Slope-Scale Rockfall Susceptibility Modeling as a 3D Computer Vision Problem
Remote Sensing, 2023 Rockfall constitutes a major threat to the safety and sustainability of transport corridors bordered by rocky cliffs. This research introduces a new approach to rockfall susceptibility modeling for the identification of potential rockfall source zones ...
