This thesis reviews computer simulation of rockfalls in general and an attempt has been made to analyse and predict rockfalls at Fox Glacier, West Coast, New Zealand, using rockfall simulation programs. A comprehensive comparison of five rockfall simulation programs was carried out to help decide upon which program is the best to use for a detailed analysis of rockfalls. It was found from the comparison that the program Rockfal2 is the best to use for this purpose. Certain differences were n...
