TL;DR: In this paper, the empirical formulations to forecast landslide generated water waves, recently defined in the framework of a research program funded by the Italian National Dam Office RID (Registro Italiano Dighe), are here used to study three real cases of subaerial landslides which fell down italian artificial reservoirs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the principal features of the generated waves in a three-dimensional water body, as a function of the landslide movement are characterized using a wavelet analysis approach; new forecasting formulations (named RID formulas) are defined on the basis of the experimental study and tested using an artificial neural network model.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present new physical model experiments on tsunamis generated by landslides at the coast of a conical island, which are carried out in a large wave tank; the radius of the island coastline and the falling height of the landslide have been varied during the experimental campaign.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe 2D numerical simulations of velocity and pressure fields generated by non-breaking waves on a vertical breakwater with a recurved parapet wall.

TL;DR: In this article, a new experimental campaign aimed at reproducing tsunamis generated by landslides at the flank of conical islands is presented, which consists of both fixed and movable wave gauges, and each experiment has been repeated several times by changing the configuration of the movable gauges.
