Title: Group A


1
Group A
  • Stephan Grilli
  • Fengyan Shi
  • Solomon Yim
  • Ian Robertson
  • Peter Yin
  • Kuang-An Chang
  • Guy Gelfenbaum
  • Pat Lynett
  • Elena Suleimani
  • Julie Young
  • Utku Kanoglu
  • Shinji Sato
  • Takenori Shimozono
  • Diego Arcas
  • Harry Yeh

2
Bathymetry
  • Remote control of experiments
  • Absorption
  • Horse hair side walls for fast wave damping

3
Usage of Basin
  • Wave interaction with structures
  • Permanent 1 on 20 beach as a basis for
    community?
  • Ports and harbors models on top of slope?
  • Granular flow, scaling issues for landslides

4
Usage of Basin
  • Benchmark problems?
  • Limitations for local effects modeling?
  • Scaling effects?
  • 3-D bathymetry
  • Runups
  • Challenges to 3-D motions

5
Usage of Basin
  • Port is a big client
  • Formation of an advisory panel?
  • The first NEES Grant Challenge project is on
    ports. It focuses on the Port of Seattle
  • Port of LA has Mofatt and Nichol conduct
    research. Would like to exchange knowledge and
    collaborate
  • Create a generic port for the community?

6
Usage of Basin
  • Scaling limitations forces us to focus on more
    local areas rather than large scale
    infrastructures
  • A 1/15 or PI/45 slope will leave 30 ft of flat
    bottom for tsunami wave generation
  • The beach at URI (20m X 3.6 m) cost 25K at
    approximately 40/sq.ft. for the TWB would be
    about 400K

7
Usage of Basin
  • A flume and a 3-D basin side by side
  • Dambreak physical simulation capability for the
    2-D flume

NEES OSU Tsunami Wave Basin

30 m
8 m
9
Collaboration
  • New proposals
  • Ports?
  • Build much bigger breakwater?
  • Scaling limitations
  • Uplift of decks due to tsunami?
  • West coast ports have strong anchoring for
    seismic design

10
Collaboration
  • Important issue for Port design is the maximum
    current due to tsunami
  • Huge ships 250,000 tons of debris flow
  • Long channel 9-10 miles, 1000 ft wide, 53 ft
    deep) with high speed current
  • What are the likely scenarios to design for?
  • Hawaii small group project may collaborate with
    Georgia Tech GC project

11
Collaboration
  • Payload projects

12
Instrumentation
  • What are the needs?
  • A variable depth sensor array
  • Automated calibration
  • Fiber Optic Backscatter Sensors
  • Surface PIV
  • More cameras
  • Underwater PIV
