Variation analysis of multiple tsunami inundation models
Coastal Engineering Journal, 2021 Researchers have developed tsunami inundation models based on nonlinear shallow water equations to estimate tsunami propagation and inundation. However, their empirical results are not in perfect agreement with those of other research institutes, even ...

Challenges, 2022 Following the Great East Japan Earthquake, vertical evacuation shelters (VES) were constructed to reduce tsunami risk. Childcare centers (CCs) in the inundation area are required to evacuate to the nearest VES in the event of a tsunami. The study aim was

Coastal Engineering 1976, 1976 This paper concerns the run-up and inundation characteristics of tsunami surges. The forces and moments produced by the waves are not discussed, however, the proposed technique does provide the necessary information for their determination. The method relies on the knowledge of the wave elevation at the coast (as determined from historical data or ...

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2022 The distributions of sandy tsunami deposits do not reflect the true extents of tsunami inundation areas, leading to underestimates of inundation by past tsunamis and thus the magnitudes of their associated tsunamigenic earthquakes.

Potential inundation of Lisbon downtown by a 1755-like tsunami [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2011 In this study, we present 10 m resolution tsunami flooding maps for Lisbon downtown and the Tagus estuary. To compute these maps we use the present bathymetry and topographic maps and a reasonable estimate for the maximum credible tsunami scenario ...

A SURVEY METHOD OF TSUNAMI INUNDATION AREA USING CHEMICAL COMPONENTS IN TSUNAMI INUNDATED SOIL
Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B2 (Coastal Engineering), 2011 A severe earthquake of Mw 8.8 occurred on 27 Feb. 2010 at Chil and the subsequent tsunami attacked the coast. The field survey was conducted in Chile to develop a new survey method based on a chemical analysis of soil. The soil samples were obtained from both the inundated and the not-inundated area and the content of water-soluble ions, electric ...
