Probabilistic Source Selection for the Cascadia Subduction Zone
(2017-03-19)This report has been submitted to FEMA Region IX as a final project report for a project on developing new methodologies for Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment (PTHA). We propose a methodology for taking a large number ... -
Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment (PTHA) for Crescent City, CA. Final Report for Phase I
(University of Washington Department of Applied Mathmatics, 2013-02-02)This demonstration Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Assessment (PTHA) study of Crescent City, California was funded by BakerAECOM and motivated by FEMA's desire to explore methods to improve products of the FEMA Risk Mapping, ... -
Spectral Methods for Partial Differential Equations that Model Shallow Water Wave Phenomena
Mathematical models for waves on shallow water surfaces has been of interest to researchers dating back to the 1800's. These models are governed by partial differential equations, and many of them have rich mathematical ... -
Tsunami Hazard Assessment of the Strait of Juan de Fuca
(2015-09-24)This report documents the results of a study supported by the Washington State Emergency Management Division of the tsunami hazard along the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Results include inundation depths and times of arrival ... -
Tsunami Hazard Assessment of Whatcom County, Washington. Project Report - Version 2
(2019-05-19)This report documents the results of a study supported by the Washington State Emergency Management Division of the tsunami hazard along the coast of Whatcom County. One earthquake source from the Seattle Fault and one ... -
A wave propagation algorithm for hyperbolic systems on curved manifolds
(Elsevier, 2004-09-20)An extension of the wave propagation algorithm first introduced by LeVeque [J. Comput. Phys. 131 (1997) 327] is developed for hyperbolic systems on a general curved manifold. This extension is important in a variety of ... -
A Wave Propagation Method for Conservation Laws and Balance Laws with Spatially Varying Flux Functions
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2002)We study a general approach to solving conservation laws of the form qt+f(q,x)x=0, where the flux function f(q,x) has explicit spatial variation. Finite-volume methods are used in which the flux is discretized spatially, ... -
A wave propagation method for three-dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws
(Elsevier, 2000-11-20)A class of wave propagation algorithms for three-dimensional conservation laws and other hyperbolic systems is developed. These unsplit finite-volume methods are based on solving one-dimensional Riemann problems at the ...
