Abstract

A linear long wave mathematical model is formulated and processed to a compact one equation form, for the description of the generation and propogation of seismic origin water waves. The predictive ability and specific properties of the model are tested by means of a number of numerical experiments and comparison to existing analytical or numerical solutions. Two applications are finally presented for Greek coastal areas: tsunami generation in the bays of Patra and Corinthos and reproduction of a rencent (1956) tsunami in South Aegean Sea (the second application leads to comparison of computed and observed wave heights).
