Validating velocities in the GeoClaw tsunami model using observations near Hawaii from the 2011 Tohoku tsunami

MEM Arcos, RJ LeVeque - Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2015 - Springer
The ability to measure, predict, and compute tsunami flow velocities is of importance in risk
assessment and hazard mitigation. Substantial damage can be done by high velocity flows …

Probabilistic quantification of tsunami current hazard using statistical emulation

D Gopinathan, M Heidarzadeh… - Proceedings of the …, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
In this paper, statistical emulation is shown to be an essential tool for the end-to-end
physical and numerical modelling of local tsunami impact, ie from the earthquake source to …

Quantitative risk analysis of the hazard chain triggered by a landslide and the generated tsunami in the Three Gorges Reservoir area

Y Li, L Chen, K Yin, Y Zhang, L Gui - Landslides, 2021 - Springer
Landslides sliding rapidly into water bodies may trigger tsunamis, which can threaten not

Hydrodynamic response of moored ships to seismic-induced harbor oscillations

Z Zheng, X Ma, M Yan, Y Ma, G Dong - Coastal Engineering, 2022 - Elsevier
Free-surface oscillations induced by seismic waves were observed in many harbors. These
free-surface fluctuations could lead to damage in a wide range of forms, such as breakage of …

Assessment of tsunami hazards in ports and their impact on marine vessels derived from tsunami models and the observed damage data

A Muhari, I Charvet, F Tsuyoshi, A Suppasri, F Imamura - Natural Hazards, 2015 - Springer
This paper presents a detailed study of tsunami hazard in ports and its correlation with the
damage suffered by marine vessels. The study aims to develop a new loss function to …

Observed and modeled currents from the Tohoku-oki, Japan and other recent tsunamis in northern California

AR Admire, LA Dengler, GB Crawford, BU Uslu… - Pure and Applied …, 2014 - Springer
We investigate the currents produced by recent tsunamis in Humboldt Bay and Crescent
City, California. The region is susceptible to both near-field and far-field tsunamis and has a …
