Simulation of Tsunami Wave Generated by Submarine Slide: Generation, Propagation, Run-Up and Impact

Submarine slides can generate tsunami waves with high affecting coastal structures, human
lives along the shoreline and subsea facilities. Unfortunately, submarine slide-generated tsunami is a
complicated problem due to the source of sliding. It can be slide down by earthquakes, undersea
volcanic eruptions or itself. There are no effective tools that could solve all problems when simulating
tsunami waves such as: extremely large deformation, free surface issue, deformable boundary, complicated geometry, time-consuming and costly process. So how to understand substance of tsunami clearly and how to find methods to reduce damage from tsunami wave. This paper will present a parallel computing based on parallel SPHysics, to simulate a comprehensive model of tsunami wave by using Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method.
