Rockfalls: analysis of the block fragmentation through field experiments
(2022-05)
Article
Open AccessFragmentation is a common feature of rockfall that exerts a strong control on the trajectories of the generated blocks, the impact energies, and the runout. In this paper, we present a set of four real-scale rockfall tests ... -
Capturing rockfall kinematic and fragmentation parameters using high-speed camera system
(2022-06-05)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents a procedure for tracking rockfall trajectories and extracting kinematic parameters from both the impacts and the resultant fragments. A set of full scale rockfall experiments was performed in a quarry ... -
Spatial data infrastructure (SDI) for inventory rockfalls with fragmentation information
(2022-03-01)
Article
Open AccessThe fragmentation phenomenon has a significant effect on rockfall risk assessment. This information is difficult to obtain, but it is key to improving rockfall modelling. For this reason, the RockModels team has gathered ... -
Sentinel-1 A-DInSAR approaches to map and monitor ground displacements
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-03-16)
Article
Open AccessPersistent scatterer interferometry (PSI) is a group of advanced interferometric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) techniques used to measure and monitor terrain deformation. Sentinel-1 has improved the data acquisition ... -
A Framework to Project Future Rainfall Scenarios: An Application to Shallow Landslide-Triggering Summer Rainfall in Wanzhou County China
(2022-03-01)
Article
Open AccessFatal landslides are a widespread geohazard that have affected millions of people and have claimed the lives of thousands around the globe. A change in climate has significantly increased the frequency and magnitude of ... -
Impacts of future climate and land cover changes on landslide susceptibility: regional scale modelling in the Val d’Aran region (Pyrenees, Spain)
(2022-01)
Article
Open AccessIt is widely accepted that future environmental changes will affect rainfall-induced shallow slides in high-mountain areas. In this study, the Val d’Aran region located in the Central Pyrenees was selected to analyze and ... -
Incertidumbre en el análisis multitemporal en terrenos escarpados debido al uso de MDE
(2021)
Article
Open AccessLa calidad de los modelos digitales de elevación (MDE) es fundamental en geomorfología, especialmente en los estudios multitemporales en los que se quiere reconocer los cambios de relieve mediante el cálculo del volumen ... -
Comparative analysis of a new assessment of the seismic risk of residential buildings of two districts of Barcelona
(2022)
Article
Open AccessThere are personal and institutional decisions that can increase the seismic resilience of the buildings in a city. However, some of these decisions are possible if we have basic knowledge of buildings’ seismic risk. The ... -
The impact of peer learning on student performance in an architectural sustainability course
(2021-07-26)
Article
Open AccessPurpose: the importance of sustainability in architecture currently necessitates the integration of innovative teaching strategies on the subject into architecture programs. This study aims to introduce and examine peer ... -
A new morphodynamic instability associated with cross-shore transport in the nearshore
(2021-07-16)
Article
Open AccessThe existing theory for shore-transverse rhythmic sand bars relies on morphodynamic instabilities involving the wave-driven longshore current and rip currents. Intriguingly, transverse finger bars are common on coasts with ... -
Past, present and future monitoring at the Vallcebre landslide (Eastern Pyrenees, Spain)
(2021-01)
Article
Open AccessWorks carried out to monitor the displacements of the Vallcebre landslide (Pyrenees range, NE of Spain) since 1987 are presented. The landslide, which extends over an area of about 0.8 km2 and affects more than 20 × 106 ... -
TLS measurements of initial imperfections of steel frames for structural analysis within BIM-enabled platforms
(2021-05)
Article
Open AccessTerrestrial Laser Scanners (TLS) provide manifold possibilities in construction sites. In buildings assembled with steel frames, the “as-built” configuration of the structure can be virtualized by means of TLS measurements ...
