Numerical Simulation of Tsunamis Considering the Characteristics of Propagation in the East Sea

동해 전파특성을 고려한 지진해일 모의

In this study, the numerical model for simulation of tsunamis is constructed by using the dispersion-correction scheme, 2nd upwind scheme, dynamic linking method, and so forth. The composed numerical model is used to simulate a hitorical tsunami event. The target tsunami event is the 1983 Central East Sea Tsunami. And, the predicted run-up heights of the tsunami at Imwon port are very reasonable compared to available observed data.
