Analytical and numerical study of nonlinear effects at tsunami modeling

摘要

The giant tsunami occurred in the Indian Ocean on 26th December 2004 pays attention to this natural phenomenon and the possibility to use the analytical methods. The given paper demonstrates the role of nonlinear effects in the computed dynamics of the tsunami waves in shallow seas and the applicability of the rigorous and approximated solutions of the nonlinear theory of water waves to explain the results of the numerical simulation.
