چکیده
On 28 November 1945, the coasts of Pakistan, Iran, Oman and India were affected by tsunami waves generated by a submarine earthquake having magnitude of 8.1 with its epicenter located at 24.5 N 63.0 E. More than 4,000 people were killed and great destruction took place along the coasts of Pakistan, Iran, Oman and India. This study aims at giving a contribution to the assessment of tsunami risk in southern coasts of Iran using numerical modeling of the 1945 event. To model the generation phase of the tsunami a computer program has been developed based on Mansinha and Smylie (1971) equations. The generation model assumes a rectangular shape for the ruptured area and uses shear forces over the rapture surface. The propagation and runup of this tsunami has been simulated by a finite difference numerical model solving the shallow water equations. These equations have been discretized using the leap-frog scheme. Computed tsunami features such as travel times and run-up height distribution are given; which are useful in the evaluation of the tsunami hazard. Finally, model results have been compared with the observed runup values all along the affected coasts.کلیدواژه ها

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.
کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
