Applicative Estimation of Damage Risk from Tsunami Wreckage in Consideration of Submergence

Abstract

This paper presents applicative tsunami wreckage simulation and damage estimation. In order to determine the volume of wreckage and the some parameters such as the condition of wreckage motion, some studies were carried out some kind of properties of wreckages such as the position and the type of wreckage were defined by using extensional function of GIS. For the presented study, the tsunami wreckage simulation and damage estimation of Nankai Trough Quake was carried out. The validity of applicative damage estimation for tsunami wreckage was presented in this paper.
