Abstract
Since many islands are located in the South Sea, unexpected damage by tsunamis could be caused by mutual interferences between adjacent islands. In this study, the variation of run-up heights is investigated by using different crest lengths of incident waves and different distances between two adjacent islands. The run-up height sharply increases when the crest length of Incident waves is greater than the distance bewteen outer boundaries of two islands. The run-up height also increases as the distance between two adjacent islands decreases.
Keywords
