Continuous seismic signals are proposed as a useful quantitative information source for the estimation of rockfall properties. However, few studies have examined the characteristics of the seismic signal of fragmentation‐related rockfalls. In this study,

Abstract A major feature of the magnitude 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake of 12 May 2008 in China was the rockfalls that obliterated many kilometres of main roads, damaged power plants and destroyed transmission lines. The rockfalls would have made access to many dams impossible for long periods of time.

Rockfalls and rockslides often occur in mountainous areas, and they may develop into rock avalanches because of fragmentation. A series of laboratory experiments were conducted to study the contributions of rock mass structure to the emplacement of ...

Rockfalls are a type of fast mass movement common in mountain areas worldwide triggered. Natural triggers of rockfalls comprise earthquakes (Harp and Wilson 1995; Marzorati et al. 2002), freeze-thaw cycles of water (Gardner 1983; Matsuoka and Sakai 1999), melting of snow (Wieczorek and Jager 1996) or permafrost (Gruber et al. 2004), temperature changes

Three-dimensional rockfall modelling and rockfall protection – Port Hills
Proceedings of the 2013 International Symposium on Slope Stability in Open Pit Mining and Civil Engineering, 2013After the February 2011 Christchurch earthquakes Geovert were commissioned by the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (CERA) to provide the desperately needed answers to the widespread rockfall hazard. Including how best to protect people and assets, how much will it cost and how long will it take.

Large rockfalls and debris avalanches constitute spectacular geologic hazards. A physical basis for the prediction of the extent of runout of such transport events has remained elusive. We consider the simplest case in which a mass M of debris and loose rock, having fallen from a height H , is subjected to a constant, overall resisting shear stress ...
