Simulation of Full-Scale Rockfall Tests with a Fragmentation Model

Simulation of Full-Scale Rockfall Tests with a Fragmentation Model

In this paper, we present the upgraded version of RockGIS, a stochastic program for the numerical simulation of rockfalls and their fragmentation, based on a fractal model. The code has been improved to account for a range of fragmentation scenarios, depending on the impact conditions. In the simula...
