Tortuosity—A Novel Approach to Quantifying Variability of Rockfall Paths
Rockfall poses a significant hazard in steep terrain, where complex ground interactions cause falling boulders to deviate from straight-line paths. While lateral dispersion is commonly used to describe the distribution of deposited boulders from rockfall events, it does not provide any insight into...
