Abstract The 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in Japan highlighted the potential
vulnerability of nuclear power plants (NPPs) to tsunami events. In order to ensure the …

Tsunami debris can place large demands on the structures it impacts. The types of potential
debris and impact forces they generate are not well understood, and relatively little …

Tsunamis, landslide-generated waves, and dam failures are rare, but highly destructive
phenomena, associated with extreme loading on infrastructure. Recent events showed that …

The influence of a building array on tsunami-driven run-up loads is studied through
laboratory experiments and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. Results show …

In this study, the impact process on a vertical wall due to the dam-break-induced surge was
investigated experimentally. The entire surge impact process is classified into three stages …

Both surge and bore impacts could lead to the failure of coastal structures. Nevertheless,
differences between the surge-and bore-induced hydrodynamic impact processes on a …

Since tsunamis pose a threat to many coastal areas, the mitigation of tsunami forces is
important in saving lives and reducing damage when a tsunami comes. Barriers are …

In a recent work by Gui et al., an incompressible SPH model was presented that employs a
mixed pressure Poisson equation (PPE) source term combining both the density‐invariant …
