Three dimensional numerical simulation of bore type tsunami propagation and run up on to a dike

Tsunami increases its height on the shallow water area and may transfers into bore when it breaks. Bore type tsunami sometimes produces huge forces and causes large damages on coastal infrastructures. In order to mitigate tsunami damages, bore type tsunami propagation, run-up and its characteristics need to be understood. And aside of experimental study, numerical simulation provides principal physical quantities with higher resolution in time and space. This study discus the validity of a numerical simulation based on VOF method, CADMAS-SURF, and characteristics of bore propagation on to a dike.
