Brief Communication: Measuring rock decelerations and rotation changes during short-duration ground impacts

<p>Rockfall trajectories are primarily influenced by ground contacts, causing changes in acceleration and rock rotation. The duration of contacts and its influence on the rock kinematics are highly variable and generally unknown. The lack of knowledge hinders the development and calibration...
