3-D models and structural analysis of rock avalanches: the study of the deformation process to better understand the propagation mechanism

Rock avalanches are extremely destructive and uncontrollable events that involve a great volume of material (&gt; 10<sup>6</sup> m<sup>3</sup>) and several complex processes, and they are difficult to witness. For this reason the study of these phenomena using analog mode...
