Abstract:The aim of this study is to investigate the reflection coefficient and the energy loss of tsunami as experimentally. The beach was built as a natural sandy one with grain diameter of 0.35 mm and the specific gravity of 2.63. The slopes of the beach were selected as 1/1.5, 1/5 and 1/8, respectively. As a result of experimental investigations, beach slope, tsunami run-up height, incident and reflecting wave heights, the characteristics of the beach material, and specific gravity of the water were determined as t… Show more
