1D simulation of the Lituya Bay test case
In Herman Fritz (2001) a laboratory model at scale 1:675 was built to give a one-dimensional representation of the Lituya Bay mega-tsunami event of 1958.
2. See the animation of the numerical experiment.
An animation is presented showing the time evolution of the water surface. For comparison reasons the evolution of a point located at x=850m and the run-up are tracked.
3. Validation with experimental data.
The numerical experiment is validated comparing with the laboratory experimental data presented in H. Fritz (2001).
