Populations and metropolitan centers are accumulated in coastal areas around the world. In
view of the fact that they are geographically adjacent to coasts and intense anthropogenic …

This paper reviews achievements and findings from studies associated with numerical
modeling of tsunami since the 2011 Tohoku earthquake, and addresses challenges for …

Seismic metamaterials (SMs) have attracted the attention of many researchers in the field of
damping and elastic wave isolation because of their bandgap properties, ie, attenuating …

A numerical model for the structure-water-soil (layered)-rock (SWLR) system is proposed in
this paper to evaluate the system dynamic response, in which the fluid-solid coupling effect …

It has been a decade and a half since the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami devastated people's
lives in Aceh, Indonesia. Over the years, there was a massive reconstruction process, which …

High-energy events such as tsunamis pose significant threats to coastal infrastructure and
buildings, necessitating effective mitigation strategies to minimize damage. Compared to …

This paper examines long wave loading on a building array behind a high-elevation, varying-
length seawall through laboratory experiments conducted in Oregon State University's …

Extreme events, including tsunamis, storm surges and hurricanes, affect the western North
Atlantic coast, threatening communities and impacting ecosystems. Although these extreme …

Three-dimensional (3D) modeling of tsunami events is intended to promote tsunami safety.
However, the developed 3D modeling methods based on Computational Fluid Dynamics …

Estimating paleotsunami frequency and size is an important requirement for assessing
future tsunami risks. However, several issues such as ground soil erosion by subsequent …
