SiTProS Model - Calculation The Certificate Program in Tsunami Science and Preparedness. SiTProS Model - Calculation From where u(n+1) may be calculated as: Substitute all terms in the wave equation, finally you get the equation 4 when C and h are given below of this page. This equation is for fully wave equation, but the calculation is slower than the previous model of our tsunami generation. The first program, we ignored the term -4U(n,i,j) and +2U(n,i,j) Held at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington (USA) , During July 21- August 2, 2007.

The Certificate Program in Tsunami Science and Preparedness. Conclusion This paper has introduced the tsunami propagation simulator model which calculated trends to check the model could predict the tsunami arrival times. We have already compared the result of the model with observation time in the case of the December 26, 2004. In general, it was found that the model can predict quite well. The model is already implemented for Tsunami Warning Systems to provide a first estimate of tsunami arrival time. The SiTProS model has therefore been developed by ourselves, using a fast algorithm for a quick estimate of the tsunami front propagation. We have applied this model to the 26th December event. It shows a very satisfied prediction of the time of the main events. The trial version of software is available at http://www.schuai.net/SiTProS.
