In the face of climate change (CC),“business as usual” is futile. The increased frequency and
intensity of extreme weather events (eg, hurricanes, floods, droughts, and heatwaves) have …

A framework combining a tsunami flow model and debris (large floating object) transport
model was developed to evaluate the kinematics of multiple debris and sequential hazards …

Catastrophic tsunamis occur around the world and as coastal communities continue to grow,
consideration of cascading tsunami-borne debris effects on coastal structures becomes …

A tsunami created by the momentary release of a large amount of energy accumulated in the
ocean crust destroys coastal structures and generates considerable debris, posing a serious …

Many numerical models have been developed to estimate the behavior of debris generated
by tsunamis. However, such numerical models have been validated through comparison …

A 1: 16 scaled physical model was constructed to investigate the effectiveness of a seawall,
a submerged breakwater, and mangrove forests to mitigate overland flooding and forces on …

Coastal regions often feature seawalls situated behind sand dunes, introducing unique
topographical factors that significantly influence ship drift and collision behavior. This study …

During an extreme tsunami event, forests along the shoreline are destroyed and produce
numerous pieces of debris that cause further destruction of inland structures. However, if that …

Waterborne debris impacts during inundation events are a widely observed threat to
structures in coastal communities. This study investigates the probability of impact and …

Flash flooding has become more prominent under climate change, threatening people's life
and property. Post‐event investigations of recent events emphasize the role of floating …
