A large seismic gap lies along northern Chile and could potentially trigger a M (w) similar to 8.8-9.0 megathrust earthquake as pointed out in several studies. The April 1, 2014, Pisagua earthquake broke the middle segment ...

The time characteristics of the seismic source are usually neglected in tsunami modeling, due to the difference in the time scale of both processes. Nonetheless, there are just a few analytical studies that intended to ...

A general method of solution for the runup evolution and some analytical results concerning a more general bathymetry than a canonical sloping beach model are presented. We studied theoretically the water wave elevation ...

Las alturas máximas del tsunami (alturas de runup) son unos de los parámetros de mayor interés, ya que su predicción estima el peligro al cual se ve expuesta la población. Bajo esta perspectiva, el objetivo principal de ...

Tsunami inundation maps are powerful tool to design evacuation plans of coastal communities, additionally can be used as guide of territorial planning and assessment of structural damages in port facilities. The precision ...

An analytical solution is derived concerning the linear run-up for any given initial wave generated over a sloping bathymetry. Due to the simplicity of the linear formulation, complex transformations are unnecessary, hence ...
