Reconstruction of three-dimensional rockfall trajectories using remote sensing and rock-based accelerometers and gyroscopes

Abstract: Abstract. A comprehensive understanding of rockfall trajectories holds the promise to enhance the application of numericalmodels for engineering hazard analysis. Here, we present a full three-dimensional trajectory reconstruction of the Chant Sura EOTA221 rockfall experiment. The data analysis allows a complete kinematic description of a rock’s trajectory in real terrain and underscores the physical complexity of rock-ground interactions. In-situ accelerometer and gyroscope data are combined with videogrammetr… Show more

“…The shape of a rockfall is known to have a significant effect on its passage down the slope and its runout [18,19]. Detailed 3D rockfall shape has been carried forward into a new generation of rockfall models, which have incorporated custom rockfall objects and detailed terrain models [20][21][22].…”

“…The shape of a rockfall can provide insight into the structure of the sourcing rock and the failure mechanics. With a new generation of 3D rockfall modeling software, the shape of a rockfall and the quality of the rock can also give insight into its chaotic interaction with terrain and the potential runout of the fragment(s) [20][21][22]. Blott and Pye [68] described shape using four important characteristics; form, roundness, irregularity, and sphericity.…”

“…The observation and reconstruction of rockfall trajectories in forests is a demanding task (Bourrier et al, 2012). In a previous open-land study (Caviezel et al, 2019), two different trajectory reconstruction methods were described, namely the labor-intense a posteriori impact mapping (AIM) method and the (semi-)automatic dense cloud reconstruction (DCR) method. For the latter, synchronous stereo video image pairs were photogrammetrically analyzed.…”
