Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of the 2004 'Boxing Day' Tsunami on Water Properties and Currents in the Bay of BengalNaveendra Reddy, Than Aung, Awnesh SinghProblem statement: Variation of temperature, salinity and geostrophic current in the Bay of Bengal due to the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami was investigated in this project using ARGO float and absolute dynamic height topography data. This was done to determine the effect of the tsunami on the water properties in the bay. Approach: The study area was between latitudes 5º … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,386 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Physics of Tsunami: Basic understanding of the Indian Ocean disasterM. N.A. Halif, S. N. SabkiThis study gives a simple physics explanation behind the Indian Ocean earthquake, called December 26th‘s Tsunami. The explanation based on physics energy conservation and wave properties have been used to understand this phenomenon. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 7,791 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTAGN-IDC: Implicit Discrete Constraints for Tsunami Aware Graph Neural Networks in Spatial Evacuation RoutingSularno, Wendi Boy, Putri Anggraini et al.Tsunami evacuation route requires rapid identification of safe evacuation paths under dynamically changing hazard conditions. A major challenge is incorporating hard binary road-blockage constraints caused by tsunami inundation while maintaining end-to-end differentiability for deep learning models. Existing approaches commonly rely on continuous relaxations or stochastic sampling techniques, which either compromise physical feasibility or increase computational complexity. This study proposes the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 9 · 24 Sep 2026 · 704 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNumerical Study of Tsunami Waves with Sloping Bottom and Nonlinear FrictionAgustinus RibalIn this paper we investigate the breaking of long-waves propagating on shallow water with nonlinear friction on the sloping bottom. A complete set of equations is presented and a numerical method is developed to simulate the wave propagation. The method uses an up-wind difference scheme for the nonlinear convective term and the central difference scheme for other derivative terms. Various … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,129 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Empirical Study of Efficiency Evaluation with Dynamic Strategy Trajectory Based on DEA Algorithm and BCG Model: A Case Study of Securities IndustryCheng-Shian Lin, Chun-Yueh LinThe U.S. Subprime Mortgage Crisis in 2008 led many financial institutions, including those in the securities industry, to the verge of bankruptcy. As the securities industry has a pivotal position in financial markets, this study aims to use Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to discuss the efficiency of the securities industry after the Financial Tsunami. In addition, this paper integrates the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 4 Apr 2018 · 8,166 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Empirical Prediction Formula for Penetration of Ogive Nose Hard Missile into Concrete TargetsAhmad Mujahid Ahmad Zaidi, Qadir Bux Alias Imran Latif, Ismail Abdul Rahman, Muhammad Yusof IsmailProblem statement: Concrete is basic construction material used for most of structures. However, the typical vital structures have to be designed as self-protective such as nuclear plants, power plants, weapon industries, weapons storage places and water retaining structures, against any threats like natural disaster tragedy incident or intentionally produced by horrible incidents such as dynamic loading, incident occurs in nuclear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,448 accessesView PDF Cite

Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractMangrove Feedstock Potentials for RuminantHamdi Mayulu, Fandini Meilia Anjani, Khoiru Indana et al.Mangrove forests play an important role in maintaining the health and productivity of coastal ecosystems, as well as providing valuable services such as sequestering atmospheric carbon (blue carbon storage), shoreline protection, protection from natural disasters (floods, storms, tsunamis, and coastal erosion), buffering salinity changes, food supply, provision of feed resources, fuel, building materials, protection of diversity including habitat for local … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2024 · 5,345 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNASA Satellites Help us to Quickly Detect Forest FiresRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh et al.The main idea is that, as the forests of the planet are getting smaller, too much wood is cut and the forests are made too slow, there are also large forest fires due to excessive heat, of people arguing with the law, or simply by chance. Extinguishing fires are generally difficult, interventions being difficult anyway due to the increased fire, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2018 · 8,085 accessesView PDF Cite
