Summary
A kinematic analysis of rock slope instability around Safranbolu reveals significant potential hazards that could threaten the historic city. The study identifies key characteristics of rock masses prone to falling and determines controlled instability types based on slope data. This approach aims to mitigate damage to living spaces by understanding the dynamics of rock fall events in steep, unstable slopes. The findings underscore the importance of proactive measures to safeguard Safranbolu's cultural heritage from geological risks.
