Tsunamis are unpredictable and infrequent but potentially large impact natural disasters. To
prepare, mitigate and prevent losses from tsunamis, probabilistic hazard and risk analysis …

In response to climatic change, the size and number of moraine-dammed supraglacial and
proglacial lake systems have increased dramatically in recent decades. Given an …

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 …

Landslide generated impulse waves were investigated in a two-dimensional physical
laboratory model based on the generalized Froude similarity. The recorded wave profiles …

Abstract On July 10, 1958, an earthquake M w 8.3 along the Fairweather fault triggered a
major subaerial landslide into Gilbert Inlet at the head of Lituya Bay on the southern coast of …

Tsunamis generated by deformable granular landslides are physically modeled in a three‐
dimensional tsunami wave basin based on the generalized Froude similarity. The dynamic …

On March 11, 2011, a magnitude Mw 9.0 earthquake occurred off the coast of Japan's
Tohoku region causing catastrophic damage and loss of life. The tsunami flow velocity …

Landslide tsunamis represent a highly complex fluid-solid interaction process and this
complexity is one of the challenges in researching landslide disasters. Given the …

Subaerial landslide generated impulse waves were investigated in a prismatic wave
channel based on Froude similitude and granular slide material. The tests included the …

Volcano sector collapse and pyroclastic density currents are common phenomena on active
volcanoes and potentially a fatal source of tsunami waves which constitute a serious hazard …
