In this study, we experimentally investigated the interaction of tsunami wave with coastal vegetation based on theoretical analysis. Tsunami wave and coastal vegetation were modeled by solidary wave and vegetation model including root, stem and crown, respectively. Effects of root, stem, crown, and distribution density on tsunami wave attenuation were analyzed. Results showed that tsunami wave dissipation was affected by root, stem and crown to different degrees. Transmission coefficient changes were functions of the combination of relative wave height, relative height of root, relative height of stem, relative height of crown, relative width, and distribution density. A dimensionless equation was derived to characterize the inherent relationships between characteristic of wave attenuation and factors of hydrodynamics and vegetation. The purpose of this paper was to provide scientific guidance for minimizing the impact of tsunami wave on coastal regions.
Key words: tsunami wave; coastal vegetation; wave attenuation; root; stem; crown
