The numerical simulation of storm surges in shallow bays is investigated by multi-level models such as the 2-level and FE-FD models which are used to consider the velocity profiles in wind-induced currents. These models were applied to hindcast the storm surge caused by Typhoon 7916 in Osaka Bay with the result that the water surface elevations and currents induced by the storm surge were successfully simulated.

Field surveys were performed in the southwest of Bangladesh after cyclone Sidr in 2007 and in Yangon River Basin after Cyclone Nargis in Myanmar in 2008 in order to learn lessons out of severe disasters due to cyclones. Spatial distributions of inundation heights were measured around the most damaged areas. Both Bangladesh and Myanmar were severely damaged, but the preparedness against storm surge and the experiences were different. The resultant total losses in these two countries were significantly different. In Bangladesh, many people witnessed that storm surges inundated with bore-like waves. Counter measured against storm surges should account for the physical mechanisms for the development of such bore-like waves and possible damages due to such waves. Embankment showed significant roles to minimize the damage. Development of riverbanks especially around the river mouth is one of most essential counter-measures to be carried out in Bangladesh. Shelter functioned well to save significant number of lives in Bangladesh. But in Myanmar, there were few experiences on storm surge and no countermeasures such as shelters. These differences results the difference of losses. They were 4,232 including deaths and unknowns in Bangladesh but 138,373 in Myanmar.

In this paper, a new method for the numerical simulation of structural model is proposed,which is employed to analyze the pounding response of caissons subjected to storm surge loads.According to the new method,the simulation process is divided into two steps. Firstly, the wave propagation caused by storm surge is simulated by the wave-generating tool of Flow-3D, and recording the wave force time history on the caisson. Secondly,a refined 3D finite element model of caisson is established,and the wave force load is applied on the caisson according to the measured data in the first step for further analysis of structural pounding response using the explicit solver of LSDYNA. The whole simulation of pounding response of a caisson caused by “Sha Lijia” typhoon is carried out. The results show that the different wave direction results in the different angle caisson collisions, which will lead to different failure mode of caisson, and when the angle of 60 between wave direction and front/back wall is simulated, the numerical pounding failure mode is consistent with the situation.

In this paper, a numerical model of the coupling between astronomical tide and storm surge based on hydraulic model for estuary and coast (ECOM) is confirmed to be suitable for simulation of stormsurge in the Bohai Sea. The spatial distribution of extreme water level and storm current field caused by typhoons in October 2003 are simulated.It shows that extreme water level in deep water are smaller than shallow water and the spatial distribution of extreme water level is influenced by topography.Flow filed in Bohai Sea waters takes on an fluctuation in flow field, compensatory flow and other obvious features during storm surge, compared storm surge with astronomical tide, which is a significant difference in flow filed.

Abstract On December 4, 2007, a three million cubic metres landslide impacted Chehalis Lake, 80 km east of Vancouver, Canada. The failed mass rushed into the lake and parented a tsunami that ran up 38 m on the opposite shore, destroyed trees, roads and campsite facilities. Armed with field surveys and multihigh-tech observations from SONAR, LiDAR and orthophotographs, we apply the newly developed ‘Tsunami Squares’ method to simulate the Chehalis Lake landslide and its generated tsunami. The landslide simulation shows a progressive failure, flow speeds up to ∼60 m s–1, and a slide mass stoppage with uniform repose angle on the lakebed. Tsunami products suggest that landslide velocity and spatial scale influence the initial wave size, while wave energy decay and inundation heights are affected by a combination of distance to the landslide, bathymetry and shoreline orientation relative to the wave direction.

Based on the large number of field surveys and long-term monitoring data of Hongceng, Hongliu and MengliuDong monitoring points, the wind-sand flow movement characteristics along the railway in Gobi area was analyzed. The shielding effect of the wind-break wall was evaluated by the methods of numerical simulation and field test. Conclusions drawn as followings: the wind-sand flow movement in Gobi area is characterized by stable of direction, seasonal, high-velocity,long-term,and shorting of starting-up time and moresand content. Numerical simulation shows that the wind flow form a large vortex region on the leeward side of wall, the flow field elements occurs significant changes. Both field test data and numerical simulations indicated that 3.0m height of wind-break wall meet the requirement of shielding wind-sand flow.
