Abstract:

Tsunami is a serious marine disaster, and accurate tsunami prediction is of great significance to marine engineering and the safety of people’s lives and property. In this paper, based on 1-dimensional convolutional neural network (CONV1D), the evolution model of tsunami-like hydrodynamic characteristics of reef topography is constructed. By inputting observed values of wave heights resembling tsunami waves, the water inundation time series curves for specified locations on islands and reefs are generated. This achieves a prediction from one time series to another, serving the purpose of marine disaster prevention. The results indicate that the average relative error in predicting the arrival time of tsunami-like waves is 0.71%, and the average relative error in predicting maximum water levels is 6.99%. The hydrodynamic characteristics of island and reef terrains resembling tsunami waves obtained through CONV1D exhibit a strong alignment with numerical results.
