The influence of land cover roughness on the results of high resolution tsunami inundation modeling [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2011
In this paper a local case study is presented in which detailed inundation simulations have been performed to support damage analysis and risk assessment related to the 2004 tsunami in Phang Nga and Phuket, Thailand.

Circular Economy in Crisis Contexts: An Assessment Framework for Post‐Disaster Building Stock Toward Strategic Autonomy

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐disaster contexts generate large volumes of damaged building stock with significant, yet often unquantified, circularity potential. Through the lens of strategic management, the circular economy emerges as a transformative pathway to strengthen systemic resilience by reducing dependencies on external resources and mitigating supply chain ...

Beyond political risk: Toward a holistic understanding of multinational enterprise resilience in the era of cascading crises

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This article develops a conceptual framework for understanding multinational enterprise (MNE) resilience in the era of cascading crises. We define resilience as the MNE's capacity to absorb disruption, maintain or restore functioning, and reconfigure operations as conditions shift.

Distribution of tsunami inundation area and tsunami height associated with the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake, central Japan

Earth, Planets and Space
The Noto Peninsula earthquake occurred on January 1, 2024, with an M J of 7.6. This earthquake was triggered by active submarine faults previously mapped off the northern coast of the Noto Peninsula and generated a tsunami.

TSUNAMI INUNDATION SIMULATIONS IN URBAN TOPOGRAPHY

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2018
The inundation of the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake Tsunami showed complex behavior over the land. According to the surveys of the Tohoku Earthquake Tsunami in 2011, the behavior of tsunami in urban areas was different from that in rural areas and the damage was not only dependent on the inundation heights but also the local momentum.

Tsunami inundation maps for Yakutat, Alaska [PDF]

, 2016
In this report we evaluate potential tsunami hazards for the southeastern Alaska community of Yakutat and numerically model the extent of inundation from tsunami waves generated by tectonic and landslide sources. We use numerical modeling of historical tsunami events at Yakutat, such as the tsunami triggered by the 1964 Great Alaska Earthquake, and the
