| Description |
The various aspects of the propagation of long waves onto a
shelf (i.e., reflection, transmission and propagation on the shelf) are examined experimentally and theoretically. The results are applied to tsunamis propagating onto the continental shelf.
A numerical method of solving the one-dimensional Boussinesq
equations for constant depth using finite element techniques is presented. The method is extended to the case of an arbitrary variation in depth (i.e., gradually to abruptly varying...
