Abstract

Tsunamis are considered the most devastating natural hazard on costal environments ever known. Early tsunami wave detection, both quick and appropriate intervention is of vital importance for minimization tsunami damage. Simulation of tsunami wave spread remains a daunting task due to factors such as complex wave behavior, dynamical wave condition and large spatial data that needs to be modelled. In this paper tsunami wave models have been widely studied using cellular automata(CA) that has special features for simulating complex phenomena . The influential factors for tsunami wave are divided into two categories and our models are applied to eight basic cases depending on weather, topography and wave conditions for different rates of spread. The algorithm is efficient and easily implemented, allowing less computational time and cost. Experimental results of this model prove its value in tsunami wave spread as real time.
