Analysis and prediction of rockfalls using a mathematical model
227
TL;DR: The characteristics and potentials of the program were evaluated by comparing the results of in situ tests: in all cases, the program supplied generally accurate predictions in terms of fall velocity, energy, height of bounce and stopping distance.

Assessing the rockfall protection efficiency of forests at the regional scale
TL;DR: In this article, a semi-automatic GIS-based method, integrated with a multi-scenario 3D-rockfall model realized by using the simulation code HY-STONE, was used to map protection forests of Regione Lombardia (central Italian Alps).

Assessment of the effectiveness of a rockfall ditch through 3-D probabilistic rockfall simulations and automated image processing
TL;DR: In this paper, the effectiveness of a considerably long rockfall ditch to protect a settlement from falling rocks was assessed on the basis of 3-D rockfall analyses executed using high-resolution digital surface models.

Evaluation of topographic models of rockfall travel distance for use in hazard applications
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a detailed numerical model that must account for varying boulder size and shape to characterize rockfall travel distances over a broad scale, which is time-consuming and expensive.

Jiang Nan,Hai-bo Li,Jia-wen Zhou +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-evolution process of rockfall from the Hongshiyan post-earthquake rock slope is observed and analyzed, and numerical simulations based on a probabilistic model were carried out on eight different conditions to analyze the interaction between the rockfall and different ground surface.

TL;DR: The SASS computer model as discussed by the authors was developed to simulate the planar motion of a single rock down a mountain side, where the falling rock is modelled as a rigid ellipsoidal body with axes varying between defined limits.
