Tsunami waves generated by submarine landslides of variable volume: analytical solutions for a basin of variable depth

Tsunami wave generation by submarine landslides of a variable volume in a basin of variable depth is studied within the shallow-water theory. The problem of landslide induced tsunami wave generation and propagation is studied analytically for two specific convex bottom profiles (<i>h&a...
