Selection and design of bore generator for Hilo Harbor Tsunami model
Investigations of generation of bore by piston type, gate type, and pneumatic type generators; analyses were based on nonlinear shallow-water theory incorporated with bore conditions; experiments were conducted in test flume 1 ft wide and 40 ft long; explicit solutions were obtained for height, duration, and length of bores generated by each type of generator; pneumatic-type bore generator was recommended for use in model of Hilo Harbor, Hawaii, for investigation of tsunami-wave attack at Hilo.
