Tsunami-Like Wave-Induced Lateral and Uplift Pressures and Forces on an Elevated Coastal Structure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A large-scale physical model was constructed in the Large Wave Flume of Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory (HWRL) at Oregon State University to develop a dataset of measured pressures and forces acting on an elevated, coastal ...
Tsunami-Like Wave Forces on an Elevated Coastal Structure: Effects of Flow Shielding and Channeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: During a tsunami event, neighboring structures can significantly influence the forces experienced by an individual structure within an urban community. To assess the effects of adjacent structures on the resulting fluid ...
Conceptual Evaluation of Tsunami Debris Field Damming and Impact Forces
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The damage caused by tsunamis to coastal communities is often not only the result of the flowing water itself, but also of transported debris. Although there have been efforts to characterize forces from single-debris ...
