The rockfall triggered by earthquakes can cause severe infrastructure losses or even
fatalities. The flexible barrier is an efficient rockfall protection system widely used against …

Flexible rockfall barriers are commonly constructed on steep hillsides to mitigate rockfall.
The evaluation of the dynamic response of proprietary flexible rockfall barriers is …

To delineate the mechanics behavior of semi-rigid rockfall protection barriers, the energy
dissipation mechanism of the system was investigated based on energy calculation theory …

In this study, FLAC3D is applied to stimulate the dynamic responses of anchored and
unanchored rock slope under earthquake. The horizontal displacements of the surface, top …

A field investigation on the actual protective performance of a flexible rockfall barrier along a
mountain road in western China is presented in this paper. The total area of the flexible …

Flexible rockfall barriers have been widely used to mitigate rockfalls and protect residential
buildings, railroads and highways from such natural hazard. Evaluation of the performance …

Developing reliable, sustainable and resilient infrastructure of high quality and improving the
ability of countries to resist and adapt to climate-related disasters and natural disasters have …

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 barriers have been widely used in mountainous areas for mitigation of rockfalls. In
view of the lack of an applicable engineering design method, we proposed a nonlinear static …
