Abstract |
|
A tsunami is also known as a seismic sea wave. It is a series of waves in a water body caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, generally in ocean or in a large lake, earthquake, volcanic eruption and other underwater explosions, landslides, glacier calving, asteroids impacts and other disturbances above or below water surface these all have a potential to generate a tsunami. When these waves travel to the shallow water areas, the wave velocity decreases rapidly, and the wave height increases sharply. Several meters or even decades of meters water wall is formed. However, among these causes leading to tsunami, the sea quake is the most primary reason, especially the dip-slip type quake that staggers up and down along the fault surface. The main object is to analyse a seashore building against tsunami forces. To analyse the building forces due to tsunami forces are calculated for different inundation depth and considering the obtained forces response of building will be known in case of moments. By considering each critical moment of each force design of structural element is carried out and compared. |
