| Zusammenfassung |
| 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 of injury or loss of life is high. Damage to buildings and infrastructure
is quite likely. In many cases, therefore, suitable protection measures are necessary.
This contribution provides an overview of previous and current research on the main
topics related to rockfall. It covers the onset of rockfall and runout modelling
approaches, as well as hazard zoning and protection measures.
It is the aim of this article to provide an in-depth knowledge base for
researchers and practitioners involved in projects dealing with the rockfall protection of
infrastructures, who may work in the fields of civil or environmental engineering, risk and
safety, the earth and natural sciences. |
