  • Improved Tsunami Modeling Via q-Advanced Special Functions 

    Olivo, James M. (East Carolina University, 2013)
    This thesis studies q-advanced functions that are used as forcing terms in the forced wave equation and the Korteweg-de Vries equation in modeling tsunamis. The model improves existing tsunami models and is compared to ...

  • Modeling Tsunami Waves Using Q-Advanced Waves in 2-D 

    Cook, Cameron (East Carolina University, 2015-12-15)
    A two-dimensional numerical approximation for modeling tsunamis is developed. New q-advanced functions are used to model the forcing due to an earthquake. These results are used to model the Japanese tsunami of 2011, and ...
