The inundation heights of Level‐1 and Level‐2 tsunamis were estimated to be 1 and 10 m, respectively. A tsunami evacuation tower and tidal wall were built as appropriate countermeasures to prevent or mitigate fatalities, loss of containment, and business interruption. The results obtained in ...
A decision analysis exercise investigates the probability of tsunamis, probability of failures of each detection system, the probability of successful completion of an evacuation and the probability of false warnings which have their own costs. This paper concludes with the derived recommendations for a...

A case study of determining orientations of three dimensional in-situ stresses by anelasticstrain recovery (ASR) method using drill core samples was carried out in six scientific drilling sites inShikoku Island and Kii Peninsular, Japan near Nankai Subduction Zone where M8 class great earth-quakes ...
Based on a joint spectral analysis of the tsunamis and background noise, we reconstructed the spectra of tsunami waves in the deep ocean and found that, with the exception of the high-frequency spectral band (>5 cph), the spectra are in close agreement with the “true” tsunami spectra ...
