Abstract Wildfires and rockfalls are among the major hazards in forested mountainous regions across Europe. Understanding processes conditions that lead to during after a wildfire different geological contexts is, therefore, of great relevance. The increase associated with occurrence wildfires is connected several factors, not only detached area but also propagation affected area. cause changes...

This paper presents a procedure for tracking rockfall trajectories and extracting kinematic parameters from both the impacts resultant fragments. A set of full scale experiments was performed in quarry located Vallirana, Barcelona (Spain). The study site chosen due to presence rigid discontinuity surface, inclined at 42° middle slope, whose configuration expected favor breakage blocks. blocks r...

Classically used trajectory analysis models do not really account for the stochastic nature of the trajectory of falling rocks related to the variability of the impact process. The presented work focuses on the bouncing phase modelling in the case of the interaction of a boulder with a coarse granular soil. Impact simulations are first held using a Discrete Element Method. A statistical analysi...
