Numerical simulation of structural damage caused by the tsunami

我们开发了一个分布式存储并行程序来模拟海啸波冲击下混凝土墙的破坏。通过再现文献中报道的一些实验观察到的裂纹图案，该程序进行了验证。经验证的程序是用来成功地再现所观察到的裂缝模式，在大型水文地质水槽设施（LHGF）的港口和机场研究所，使用实验观察到的压力数据作为输入进行测试的全尺寸混凝土墙模型。

We developed a distributed memory parallel program to simulate the failure of concrete walls under tsunami wave impacts. The program is validated by reproducing some experimentally observed crack patterns reported in literature. The validated program is used to successfully reproduce the observed crack patterns on full scale concrete wall models, tested at the Large Hydro-Geo Flume Facility (LHGF) of the Port and Airport Research Institute, using the experimentally observed pressure data as an input.
