Numerical model landslide-generated waves
Abstract
A computer program was developed for the propagation of waves throughout a reservoir using finite difference methods. Waves may be generated within the code by using one of two landslide descriptions or a fault displacement under the reservoir. The two landslide descriptions allow the code to generate velocity time relationships or the user to input slide strips with individual velocity time relationships. The theory used, a user's guide, examples and a listing are given.
