Tsunami Science And Engineering Ii

Tsunami Science And Engineering Ii written by Valentin Heller and has been published by MDPI this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2019-11-08 with Science categories.

Earthquake-tsunamis, including the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami and the 2011 Tōhoku Tsunami in Japan, serve as tragic reminders that such waves pose a major natural hazard. Landslide-tsunamis, including the 1958 Lituya Bay case, may exceed 150 m in height, and similar waves generated in lakes and reservoirs may overtop dams and cause significant devastation. This book includes nine peer-review articles from some of the leading experts in the field of tsunami research. The collection represents a wide range of topics covering (i) wave generation, (ii) wave propagation, and (iii) their effects. Within (i), a tsunami source combining an underwater fault rupture and a landslide are addressed in the laboratory. Within (ii), frequency dispersion with the nonlinear shallow-water equations is considered and a detailed account of the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, tsunami, and fire in downtown Lisbon is presented. Two articles involve all three phases (i) to (iii), including runup and dam over-topping. Within (iii), a new semi-empirical equation for runup is introduced and the interaction of tsunamis with bridges and pipelines is investigated in large laboratory experiments. This state-of-the-art collection of articles is expected to improve modelling and mitigate the destructive effects of tsunamis and inspire many future research activities in this challenging and exciting research field.

This report provides a source of state-of-the-art information on tsunami engineering. The report summarizes available information, identifies gaps in existing knowledge, and discusses methods of predicting tsunami flooding. The generating mechanisms of tsunamis and the method of determining the probability of occurrence are given. Because of the limited data available on tsunamis, numerical methods are commonly used to predict tsunami flooding of coastal areas. Finite-difference equations are presented for simulating the propagation of tsunamis, but computer programs are omitted because of the continuing work in progress and the availability of up-to-date computer programs from other sources. Known mathematical solutions, for tsunamis approaching the shoreline and tsunami-shoreline interaction, are given to illustrate the effects of tsunamis and provide means of verifying numerical results. The report discusses tsunami-structure interaction and illustrates various types of damage caused by tsunamis. (Author).
