3D Model Creation

Construct rockfall models quickly and efficiently by importing ground surfaces from geological modeling or mine planning software.

With the Terrain Generator, you can import digital elevation models directly from satellite data, or you can use RocFall3’s built-in tools to build surfaces from point cloud data, elevation data, polyline lofting, or extrusion.

3D Barrier Design and Analysis

Optimize rockfall protection by modelling barrier geometries in 3D and analyzing spatial impacts. Use trajectory height and energy heatmaps to determine optimal barrier placement, extents, heights, and capacities for effective rock slope protection. Or select from manufacturer barrier specifications.

RocFall3 Across Applications

  • Mining
  • Rock Slopes
  • Transportation

Mining

Evaluate loss of bench width, assess runoff risk reaching lower operating levels, and design mitigation measures for your mines.

RocFall3 for Mining

Rock Slopes

Address rockfall hazards from kinematic instabilities or adverse conditions, such as unfavorable geology or changes in climate. You can model natural or manmade slopes, define rockfall seeding areas, and customize rock shapes and contact materials.

  • Rigid Body Analysis and Expanded Shape Library

    The rigid body engine accommodates 16 rock shapes and multi-contact physics to calculate impacts, sliding, and rolling. Define rock seeder properties using the new rock shape library. See rigid body theory and verification manuals here.

  • 3D Barrier Analysis

    Analyze the spatial distribution of rock retainment, energies, velocities, heights, and impact angles along barriers. Quickly visualize the intensity of impacts.

  • Rockfall Data Visualization

    Easily view rock trajectories and spatial heatmaps of end locations, impact points, rock energies, and bounce heights to design protection systems.

    RocFall3’s visualization tools include a user-friendly interface for easy data filtering and graph distributions of runout distances, energies, velocities, heights, and contour trajectories with these quantities for comprehensive analysis.
