ABSTRACT Historic rock reliefs are magnificent monuments that represent special events of the past. Due to exposure to the natural environment, these monuments are affected by natural and human erosion mechanisms. Many of them have disappeared over time and are no longer recognizable. This research seeks to find a way to understand the initial shapes of the rock reliefs that have been exposed to steady and prolonged erosion. For this purpose, a case study was selected in southern Iran that has been damaged over hundreds of years by a stream of water and has partially disappeared. The water flow has caused a groove to be formed along the cliff and apparently a strip of the relief has disappeared. Documenting the inner surface of the groove revealed that this surface is not smooth and there are still remnants of unclear reliefs in eroded sections. By examining the erosion effects on initially vertical smooth sections, it was possible to arrive at a formula to determine the damage caused by the water flow on cliffs. Based on this, it was determined to what extent the water flow had reduced the amount of rock at each height. Accordingly, each level of the damaged relief was virtually moved forward to the same extent. In this way, parts of the disappeared rock relief were virtually rebuilt. The results of this study showed that by measuring the gradual and continuous erosion factors and determining the extent of damage, the original shape of the damaged rock reliefs could somehow be reconstructed.

因水侵蚀而部分消失的岩石浮雕原始形态的检测和虚拟重建

摘要 历史岩石浮雕是代表过去特殊事件的宏伟纪念碑。由于暴露在自然环境中，这些古迹受到自然和人类侵蚀机制的影响。他们中的许多人随着时间的推移消失了，再也无法辨认。这项研究旨在寻找一种方法来了解暴露于稳定和长期侵蚀的岩石浮雕的初始形状。为此，在伊朗南部选择了一个案例研究，该案例研究已被水流损坏了数百年并已部分消失。水流在悬崖上形成了一个凹槽，显然一条浮雕已经消失了。记录凹槽的内表面发现该表面并不光滑，并且在侵蚀部分仍有不清晰的浮雕残留。通过检查对初始垂直​​光滑部分的侵蚀影响，可以得出一个公式来确定水流对悬崖造成的损害。在此基础上，确定了水流在多大程度上减少了每个高度的岩石数量。因此，受损浮雕的每一层实际上都向前移动了相同的程度。通过这种方式，部分消失的岩石浮雕实际上得到了重建。研究结果表明，通过测量逐渐和连续的侵蚀因素并确定损坏程度，可以以某种方式重建受损岩石浮雕的原始形状。确定了水流在多大程度上减少了每个高度的岩石数量。因此，受损浮雕的每一层实际上都向前移动了相同的程度。通过这种方式，部分消失的岩石浮雕实际上得到了重建。研究结果表明，通过测量逐渐和连续的侵蚀因素并确定损坏程度，可以以某种方式重建受损岩石浮雕的原始形状。确定了水流在多大程度上减少了每个高度的岩石数量。因此，受损浮雕的每一层实际上都向前移动了相同的程度。通过这种方式，部分消失的岩石浮雕实际上得到了重建。研究结果表明，通过测量逐渐和连续的侵蚀因素并确定损坏程度，可以以某种方式重建受损岩石浮雕的原始形状。
