Source and characteristics of the tsunami observed along the coast of the Pacific Northwest on March 28, 1964

Creator:: Schatz, Clifford Eugene
Abstract:: The physical linkage between oceanic earthquakes and most tsunamis is generally accepted. The commonly offered method of generation of a tsunami calls for displacement of submarine blocks of the earth's crust. But, the mechanism of communication of seismic energy to the water by the impulsive movements of the sea floor...

Influence of macro-roughness on tsunami runup & forces

Creator:: Bridges, Kerri-Jane
Abstract:: This thesis is comprised of a manuscript based on a laboratory experiment run in the Tsunami Wave Basin as part of a research project funded by the Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation called Housesmash. The purpose of the experiment was to better understand the role of the urban environment, represented...

Amplification of solitary waves along a vertical wall

Creator:: Li, Wenwen
Abstract:: Reflection of an obliquely incident solitary wave at a vertical wall is studied experimentally in the laboratory wave tank. Precision measurements of water-surface variations are achieved with the aid of laser-induced fluorescent (LIF) technique and detailed temporal and spatial features of the Mach reflection are captured. During the development stage...

Laboratory observations of tsunami runup on a complex 3D bathymetry using PIV

Creator:: Ichikawa, Shingo
Abstract:: This thesis presents the details of a large-scale laboratory experiment to study the runup velocity on a complex 3D bathymetry. The PIV measurements including the instrumental setup, the recording procedure, and the image processing are presented. Tsunami inundation directly affects the coastal population and is one of the most important...

Probabilistic Multi-hazard Earthquake-Tsunami Structural Risk Assessment Framework

Creator:: Alam, Mohammad Shafiqual
Abstract:: Catastrophic earthquake and tsunami events that resulted in significant loss of life and property over the past two decades have raised the global awareness regarding the need to understand the response of communities and their built environment to multi-hazard extreme events. In recognition to this impending threat to the coastal...

How Community Partnerships Create Capital? Social Capital, Donor Dependency and Rehabilitation Efforts of the Tsunami Affected Fishing Communities

Creator:: Masahiro, Yamao and De Silva, Devarahandhi
Abstract:: The paper empirically illustrates the social capital status of the tsunami resettlements and its impact on donor dependency. After five years of Indian Ocean tsunami, study investigates the resettled fishing communities in eastern coast of Sri Lanka. Sample composed of 200 fishing families resettled in new locations but not in...

Tsunami inundation : estimating damage and predicting flow properties

Creator:: Wiebe, Dane Michael
Abstract:: The 2004 Indian Ocean and 2011 Tohoku tsunami events have shown the destructive power of tsunami inundation to the constructed environment in addition to the tragic loss of life. A comparable event is expected for the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) which will impact the west coast of North America. Research...

Up-estuary extent and lithologic characteristics of tsunami deposits attributed to the 1700 Cascadia earthquake within Alsea Bay, OR

Creator:: Spruell, John T.
Abstract:: Cascadia’s 1700 earthquake generated a tsunami and widespread subsidence along Pacific Northwest coastline. The tsunami deposited sandy sediments in many Oregon coastal estuaries, such as Alsea Bay. Although the recurrence of subduction-generated megathrust earthquakes and tsunami events in this region are recorded in the stratigraphy, knowledge of the full inland...

Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard and Damage Assessment of the Built Environment : Applied at Seaside, Oregon

Creator:: Park, Hyoungsu
Abstract:: Damage estimates to the built environment from tsunamis are important for disaster mitigation, including planning emergency response and recovery. This dissertation evaluates the damage states of buildings in a small urban coastal city, Seaside, Oregon, from tsunami hazards generated by a Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) event. This study is separated...
