TL;DR: This paper conducted surveys along the east and west coasts of peninsular India focusing on the states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala and around Andaman and Nicobar Islands, where the devastation caused by the tsunami was unparalleled.
Abstract: The December 2004 Sumatra earthquake triggered massive tsunami waves in the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal. The tsunami waves traveled primarily in the east-west direction and caused major damage along the coasts of southern India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Indonesia. It has proved to be the most disastrous tsunami in recorded history, and scientists and engineers around the world set out to record signatures of the tsunami from which the characteristics of the tsunami waves at the time of landfall could be deciphered. Such information is extremely useful in validating mathematical models for understanding the characteristics of tsunamis and their effects along the coast. The writers conducted surveys along the east and west coasts of peninsular India—focusing on the states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala and around Andaman and Nicobar Islands, where the devastation caused by the tsunami was unparalleled. The analysis of data gathered during the post-sunami survey focused on consolidating the primary paramete...

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of high Re in predictive relationships for maximum amplitude response (Ymax) were investigated in a cylindrical structure with a towing tank, and a new equation was proposed to capture hysteresis as part of the main objective of the study.

TL;DR: In this article, a team surveyed the effects of the December 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami on the southern coast of Oman and found that runup and inundation were obtained at 41 sites, extending over a total of 750 km of shoreline.
Abstract: In August 2005, a team surveyed the effects of the December 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami on the southern coast of Oman. Runup and inundation were obtained at 41 sites, extending over a total of 750 km of shoreline. Measured runup ranged from 3.25 m in the vicinity of Salalah to a negligible value at one location on Masirah Island. In general, the largest values were found in the western part of the surveyed area. Significant incidents were documented in the port of Salalah, where a 285-m-long vessel broke its moorings and drifted inside and outside the port, and another ship struck the breakwater while attempting to enter the harbor. The general hazard to Oman from tsunamis may be greatest from the neighboring Makran subduction zone in western Pakistan.
