Numerical Investigation on the Correspondence between the Damping and Coefficient of Restitution (COR) in Rockfall Movement

The rockfall process is characterized by bounces of a block on the ground. The coefficient of restitution (COR), which indicates the degree of rockfall energy dissipation, has a significant effect on the rockfall trajectory. The 3-dimensional Distinct Element Code (3DEC) is an effective tool to stud...
