Summary Paper: Modeling the devastation of a Tsunami
How physical phenomena behave and interact with society remains to be one of the greatest enigmas of the contemporary world. In fact, following the tsunami of 2004 that reminded the world that it is nature in charge of man and not man in charge of nature, various mathematical models to predict the motion and devastating effect of tidal waves have been established and proposed, such as the prediction and warning systems installed in Southeast Asia now.
This investigation analyzed the mathematical background of shallow-water waves and established a link between the yield energy of earthquakes caused by converging tectonic plates under the assumption that this energy would be transferred exclusively into the kinetic energy of the wave produced. Additionally, each impulse of the wave was taken to be an individual body of water that struck at one instance in time. Effectively, however, it was found that a mathematical model of the establishment of tidal waves would only be able to reveal a definite relationship with the devastation caused by the impact of the wave by adapting a broad and commonly ill-defined assemblage of variables. Consequentially, the investigation regarded this as a theoretical basis. Historical data was subsequently assembled and a general trend established between a broad varieties of factors that are indicative of the scope of destruction.
