Depth-integrated, non-hydrostatic model with grid nesting for tsunami generation, propagation, and run-up
Tsunamis generated by earthquakes involve physical processes of different temporal and spatial scales that extend across the ocean to the shore. This paper presents a shock-capturing dispersive wave model in the spherical coordinate system for basin-wide evolution and coastal run-up of tsunamis and discusses the implementation of a two-way grid-nesting scheme to describe the wave dynamics at re...
متن کاملPower-law Scaling and Probabilistic Forecasting of Tsunami Runup Heights
A power-law scaling relationship describes tsunami runup heights at ten locations in Japan. Knowledge of the scaling law for tsunamis can be the basis for probabilistic forecasting of the size and number of future events and for estimating probabilities of extremely large events. Using tsunami runup data archived by the U.S. National Geophysical Data Center, we study ten locations where the tsu...
متن کاملFinite element method for simulation of Tsunami run-up from QuikiBird satellite data
In this paper, work was carried out to simulate three-dimensional (3-D) tsunami run-up from high resolution remote sensing satellite data of QuickBird. In doing so, the tsunami wave spectra are extracted from QuickBird data using two dimensional di Fourier transform (2-DFFT). The tsunami propagation equation was then solved based on the standard Galerkin finite element approach to simulate 3-D ...
متن کاملResponse of Coastal Structures against Earthquake Forces Considering Soil-Structure Interaction and Tsunami Run-Up Forces
The catastrophic tsunamis generated by the great Indonesia earthquake triggered on December 26 th , 2004, warned the coastal community on preparedness and constructing safe structures to resist against such events. Earthquake occurs suddenly without warning and bulk of destruction takes place within a short period of time. Similarly, when tsunami strikes, there will be a tremendous loss and dam...
متن کاملThe effect of beach slope on the tsunami run-up induced by thrust fault earthquakes
Analytical methods for studying tsunami run-up become untenable when the tsunami wave runs on beaches. In this study, we use a finite-element procedure that includes the interaction between solid and fluid based on the potential flow theory to simulate the dynamics of tsunami wave induced by a thrust fault earthquake in order to investigate the effect of different beach slopes on the tsunami ru...
