Experimental investigation on special modes with narrow amplification diagrams in harbor oscillations

On hydrodynamic characteristics of transient harbor resonance excited by double solitary waves

“…Solitary waves have been widely adopted to represent real tsunamis in lots of studies due to the fact that some characteristics in real tsunami events, such as the persistent hump-like waveforms, can be imitated by solitary waves very well (e.g., Craig et al (2006); Dong et al (2020a); Hayatdavoodi et al (2014); Liu et al (1995); Seiffert et al (2014); Synolakis (1987); Wang and Liu (2020)). However, based on some in-situ surveys which proved that the leading tsunamis was often 3 preceded by a depression, Tadepalli and Synolakis (1994) proposed the so called "N-waves" to represent tsunamis for the first time, and this type of tsunami waveform was further developed by Madsen and Schäffer (2010).…”

“…The majority of the harbor-oscillation investigations triggered by tsunamis were performed via utilizing solitary waves or N-waves (e.g., Dong et al (2010;2020a); Gao et al (2019a;). On the other hand, the wave effects in the coast related to DSWs are basically confined to predicting their runup/backwash on beaches (e.g., Dong et al (2014); Lo et al (2013)).…”

Study on Influences of Fringing Reef on Harbor Oscillations Triggered by N-Waves

“…As certain characteristics of real tsunamis (e.g., the stable hump-like waveform) is able to be represented by solitary waves very well, numerous existing studies have adopted solitary waves to mimicking tsunamis for decades (Ning et al, 2019;Synolakis, 1987). Heretofore, investigations on the tsunami-induced harbor resonance are also mostly restricted to utilizing a solitary wave (e.g., Dong et al (2020a); Gao et al (2019a)) or successive solitary waves (e.g., Gao et al (2018a;).…”
