To reveal the composition and distribution of the impact force of the dry granular flow against
a flexible barrier, five groups of physical experiments in different slope angles have been …

Flexible barriers, as an effective protective measure to mitigate landslide hazards, have
attracted a lot of interest from the geotechnical community. The dynamic response of flexible …

In this paper, a new design approach based on the principles of energy and momentum
conservation is proposed for the design of free-standing rigid barriers subject to point …

The rockfall impact force is important for condition assessment and high-performance
structure design of flexible barrier systems, but it is difficult to measure by contact sensors in …

Steel wire-ring nets, which have complex nonlinear mechanical behaviour, are widely used
in rockfall protection engineering. At present, the circular beam model with a discrete contact …

Field investigations and back analyses were conducted on a rockfall hazard. The flexible
barrier protection system constructed along the roadside was damaged by the rockfall …

The companion paper proposed an analytical solution for design of flexible rockfall barrier
undergoing large deflection. The part one also reported that the elongation of energy …

Flexible ring nets exhibit complex nonlinear mechanical behaviour when subjected to static
and dynamic impact loads. This research presents the development of an efficient numerical …

The purpose of this study is to develop a landslide susceptibility prediction model by
applying the Frequency Ratio (FR) model and remote sensing data sets for the Northern part …

Flexible barriers are being increasingly applied to mitigate the danger of debris flows.
However, how barriers can be better designed to withstand the impact loads of debris flows …
