Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not
