Landslide-generated waves (LGWs) are among natural hazards that have stimulated
attentions and concerns of engineers and researchers during the past decades. At the same …

With human activity increasingly concentrating on coasts, tsunamis (from Japanese tsu=
harbour, nami= wave) are a major natural hazard to today's society. Stimulated by disastrous …

Because of improvements in offshore tsunami observation technology, dispersion
phenomena during tsunami propagation have often been observed in recent tsunamis, for …

We derive fully nonlinear, weakly dispersive model equations for propagation of surface
gravity waves in a shallow, homogeneous ocean of variable depth on the surface of a …

The homogenous slip finite fault model is commonly used in tsunami hazards for a variety of
applications. These include early warning and short-term forecasts of tsunami amplitudes …

Tsunamis, or “harbor waves” in Japanese, are so-named due to common observations of
enhanced wave heights, currents and damage in harbors and ports. However, dynamic …

The occurrence of tsunami damage is not limited to events causing coastal inundation. Even
without flooding, maritime assets are vulnerable to significant damage from strong currents …

The Chicxulub crater is the site of an asteroid impact linked with the Cretaceous‐Paleogene
(K‐Pg) mass extinction at∼ 66 Ma. This asteroid struck in shallow water and caused a large …

Tsunami-induced currents present an obvious hazard to maritime activities and ports in
particular. The historical record is replete with accounts from ship captains and harbour …

Most tsunami models apply dislocation models that assume uniform slip over the entire fault
plane, followed by standard analytical models based on Volterra's theory of elastic …
