Georock 3D¶
GeoRock 3D is a program for three dimensional analysis of rock fall and for the design and optimisation of protective works utilising a sophisticated algorithm for spatial analysis.
Slope modelling.
The slope in question is generated from an xyz mesh that may be imported from formats or suitable software.
The triangulation technique is extremely important and it is recommended that Incremental Delaunay or anysotropic triangulation are used.
In this respect the Geostru software "Trispace" is eminently suitable.
A tridimensional model can be imported directly from chart work using Geostru Autocad Application (G.A.A.)
Terrain properties
The slope is discretized in homogeneous zones having similar mechanic characteristics, namely normal and tangential restitution coefficients.
Block characteristics
Geometric characteristics are specified for a spherical block rotating around its center of gravity, and mechanicaly its hardness and mass.
Launch sites
Launch sites can be indicated directly on the 3D model specifying, for each launch, the launch velocity.
Calculation
This provides three-dimensional trajectories, speed and energy.
Protective works
Protective works can be inserted directly on the 3D model and their position optimized in relation to the displayed trajectories.
Barrier archive
Facilities are provided for the archive of standard barriers that may be reutilised directly on the 3D model.
Protective works sizing
Geostru Software provides a tool, BARRIER DESIGN (B.D.) for the design a verification of rigid or elastic barriers.
Interfaces
This software interfaces with Geostru softwares Trispace and Georock 2D.
