Rockfall Hazard Assessment in Volcanic Regions Based on ISVS and IRVS Geomechanical Indices
In volcanic regions, rockfalls represent a major hazard strongly conditioned by the geomechanical behaviour of volcanic materials, the geomorphological characteristics of the relief and the climatic conditions. Volcanic rocks possess very different properties to those of other lithological groups, p...
