Synopsis "Quantitative Parameterization and 3D‐Run‐Out Modelling of Rockfalls at Steep Limestone Cliffs in the Bavarian Alps (Springer Theses) "
This pioneering work deals with the parameterization of rockfalls in the context of 3D run-out modelling at a study site in the Bavarian Alps. The main objective was to cover not only low-magnitude, high-frequency rockfalls ( Leer más Leer menos P.when('DynamicIframe').execute(function(DynamicIframe){ var BookDescriptionIframe = null, bookDescEncodedData = "This%20pioneering%20work%20deals%20with%20the%20parameterization%20of%20rockfalls%20in%20the%20context%20of%203D%20run-out%20modelling%20at%20a%20study%20site%20in%20the%20Bavarian%20Alps.%20The%20main%20objective%20was%20to%20cover%20not%20only%20low-magnitude%2C%20high-frequency%20rockfalls%20%28%3C10%20m3%29%20but%20also%20Mid-Magnitude%20events%2C%20which%20involve%20rock%20volumes%20of%20between%2010%20and%20100%20m3%20%28boulder%20falls%29%20and%20between%20100%20and%2010%2C000%20m3%20%28block%20falls%29.%20As%20Mid-Magnitude%20events%20have%20been%20insufficiently%20covered%20in%20terms%20of%20rockfall%20modelling%20up%20to%20now%2C%20a%20geomechanical%20approach%20has%20been%20developed%20to%20characterize%20those%20events%20by%20means%20of%20a%20case%20study.%20For%20a%20200%20m3%20limestone%20block%20a%20potential%20failure%20scenario%20was%20analysed%20by%20combining%20a%20deterministic%20failure%20analysis%20with%20a%20numerical%20process-based%20run-out%20model.%20To%20model%20potential%20run-out%20scenarios%20of%20the%20200%20m3%20block%2C%20the%20beta%20version%20of%20the%20code%20RAMMS%3A%3ARockfall%2C%20developed%20by%20the%20Swiss%20Institute%20for%20Snow%20and%20Avalanche%20Research%20%28SLF%29%2C%20was%20applied.%20RAMMS%3A%3ARockfall%20makes%20it%20possible%20to%20include%20the%20block%20shape%20and%20thus%20consider%20the%20effects%20of%20varying%20block%20shapes%20on%20the%20run-out%20distance.%20The%20run-out%20modelling%20for%20the%20entire%20project%20site%20was%20performed%20using%20the%20scientific%20code%20Rockyfor3D%20%28Dorren%2FecorisQ%29.%20To%20provide%20quantitative%20information%20in%20terms%20of%20input%20parameters%2C%20a%20field%20recording%20of%20block%20sizes%20at%20the%20talus%20slope%2C%20as%20well%20as%20a%20detailed%20discontinuity%20analysis%20at%20the%20source%20area%2C%20were%20conducted.%20The%20book%20successfully%20demonstrates%20how%20detailed%20and%20quantitative%20field%20investigation%20can%20contribute%20to%203D%20rockfall%20modelling.", bookDescriptionAvailableHeight, minBookDescriptionInitialHeight = 112, options = {}, iframeId = "bookDesc_iframe";
