Rockfall is an extremely rapid process involving long travel distances. Due to these features,
when an event occurs, the ability to take evasive action is practically zero and, thus, the risk …

Probabilistic approaches are widely adopted for the modeling of rockfall trajectories, but are
not widely discussed in the literature. This paper aims to help fill this gap by reviewing …

This paper presents experimentally obtained results for the coefficient of restitution for
spherical boulders impacting on rock slopes. Plaster modeling material is used for casting …

This paper deals with the study of rockfalls using a mathematical model, codified for
computer use. Called CADMA, it allows predictions to be made of fall trajectories and of the …

This paper contains a method for the analysis of rockfall risk along roads and motorways.
The method is derived from the Rockfall Hazard Rating System (RHRS) developed by …

Summary¶ This paper compiles and analyzes the rockfall data in Hong Kong in the last fifty
years. A simple rockfall hazard analysis is presented based on this rockfall inventory. A …

The accuracy of rockfall trajectory simulations depends to a large extent on the calculation of
the rebound of falling boulders on different parts of a slope where rockfalls could occur. The …

This paper considers recent contributions concerning metallic structures designed to stop
rockfalls. These structures are composed of metallic nets generally made with Anti-Sub …

This work focuses on the in-depth reconstruction of the full set of parameters of interest in
single-block rockfall trajectories. A comprehensive understanding of rockfall trajectories …

Abstract The Afyon Castle is a tourist destination and a historical site in the City of Afyon in
Turkey. The Castle is located on a steep hill, with a height of 226 m. In close proximity to the …
