INTEGRATED NUMERICAL MODEL OF SUBMARINE LANDSLIDE-INDUCED TSUNAMI: APPLICATION TO ONE - DIMENSIONAL DOMAIN

Abstract

Tsunami due to the submarine landslide occur more usual in the coastal areas and islands in the seismic zones. This paper uses the one- dimensional integrated numerical model of submarine landslide - induced tsunami to simulate the real domain. The numerical results show that the tsunami waves are generated and propagated to the shallow water area and the deep water area with the different wave forms and heights. The internal friction component and the surface friction component of the soil source are investigated to understand their effects on the properties of waves generated.
