Rockfall constitute a serious threat to communities living in mountainous areas all over the world, and their potential hazard must be taken into account for an appropriate land use planning and for establishing risk mitigation measures. This chapter deals ...
Basic principles of living with natural risks are established according to the experience of each country in facing this problem. The strategies adopted for evaluating rockfall hazards and for reducing the potential risk they represent may therefore lead t ...
Rock falls represent a serious threat to communities living in mountainous areas in several European countries, and their potential hazard must be taken into account for an appropriate land use planning and for establishing risk mitigation measures. Rock f ...
Landslide hazard mapping aims at providing very useful information for urban planning and for risk analysis. Though landslide risks represent a common threat to human lives and properties worldwide, the procedures applied for hazard and risk assessment are ...
Rock fall hazard assessment and hazard mapping are essential for the risk management of vulnerable areas. This paper analyses some issues concerning fragmental rock fall hazard mapping methodologies. Two Swiss approaches based on rock fall trajectory simul ...
We explicitly construct an irreducible four-dimensional unitary representation of the Lie group SU(2) and use it for the construction of high-rate unitary space- time codes for four transmit antennas. Our construction calls for the design of such spherical ...
We report findings of large metal grains (~150 um) with distinct zoning patterns in Ni, Co, Cr, and Si in CH chondrites which are consistent with a condensation origin from a gas of solar composition. ...
