Urban Waves focuses on understanding the impact of tsunami flows on coastal structures. It uses experimental methods to study forces exerted by tsunamis and develops models to assess risks to buildings and infrastructure in coastal areas.
Exposure to coastal floods across the world is forecast to increase to 150 million people and £20 trillion in assets by 2070 (>9% of projected annual global GDP).
In addition to cities, potentially vulnerable assets include key infrastructure such as nuclear power plants and ports: the recent Japan earthquake and tsunami demonstrating this.
Urban Waves will fill the gap in the engineering design and assessment of buildings in coastal areas subjected to onshore flow from tsunami preceded (or not)…
