1 Phase-Resolving Wave Runup for Storm Inundation Assessment Jane Smith, Andrew Kennedy, Alexandros Taflanidis, Joannes Westerink, Kwok Fai Cheung, Seizo Tanaka, Aina Ota, Madeleine Hamman, Masashi Minamide, and Michael Hartman
2 Motivation Hurricane Iniki (1992) debris line is much further inland and higher elevation (~7m) than the 2-3 m surge.
3 Motivation On steep coastlines, particularly with little or no continental shelf, wave runup can dominate storm inundation Parameterized runup predictions exist for beaches and breakwaters, but these are not general enough for arbitrary topographies
4 Runup Modeling Approach Phase-resolving Boussinesq model Nonlinear processes on arbitrary topographies, including runup Applied on 1D transects to develop lookup table of response
5 Conclusions One-dimensional Boussinesq computations give reasonable estimates of runup over complex topographies Limited by one dimensionality, bare earth assumption Results are conservative, especially in built up areas Runup can dominate over surge on steep topographies When combined with large scale wave/water level simulations, can give estimates of worst case inundations Significant areas of Honolulu would be underwater with a direct hurricane strike
6 Outline One-dimensional Boussinesq Modeling for Hawaiian Islands Runup for a single wave height/water level Storm matrix to cover range of possible conditions Hurricane Iniki runup comparisons Maximum Potential Runup for Oahu Wave+Surge+Runup inundation for suite of storms, separated by central pressure
7 Runup Computations As part of SWIMS project, compute runup along onedimensional transects for the major Hawaiian Islands Wave conditions, water levels at transect starting points determined from range of wave heights/water levels from largescale SWAN+ADCIRC simulations Use Bouss1D model (Nwogu and Demirbilek) On each transect, run 169 combinations of waves/water levels, find max runup from each transects for each island Hundreds of thousands of total runs Would like to perform 3D inundation, but computing power is not sufficient for large number of runs
8 Example Runup Computation Runup along one transect 60 m depth to breaking on shallow reef, then runup Incident waves H s ~ 8.8 m Still water level ~ 1.4 m Elev (m) Dist (m) Time(s) Runup elevation and inundation are both wave group dominated Up to 6 m maximum runup Up to 130 m max inland penetration Input Elev (m) Time(s) Time(s) 169 runs for this transect covering envelope of wave heights, water levels
9 Matrix of Runup from 13 Wave Heights 13 Water Levels Lines represent different initial water levels Wave height/water level matrix covers range of conditions Interpolate within this range
10 Hurricane Iniki Runup Comparisons on Kauai Iniki track Subregions for runup comparison
11 Hurricane Iniki Runup 1 km Poipu Debris Line Computed Surge Line Computed Runup Iniki is worst hurricane to hit Hawaiian Islands in the past century Runup comparisons give reasonable results for most cases Computed runup is much more important than computed surge
12 Iniki Runup Continued 1 km Kekaha 1 km Waimea
13 Maximum Potential Runup Hundreds of large scale SWAN+ADCIRC runs computed for different scenarios Use Boussinesq runup model to compute inundation for each run in Oahu and Kauai Group all storms by central pressure, find maximum runup/surge inundations Can be used to estimate worst case scenario for a given storm strength
14 Oahu Potential Inundation Subregions shown
15 Waikiki/Diamond Head Potential Inundation City Hall 1 km 940mb Surge 955mb Surge 970mb Surge Waikiki Diamond Head 940mb Runup 955mb Runup 970mb Runup Still water surge in particular is important in this region Low ground elevations mean that potential inundation is large Waikiki back side inundation through Ala Wai Canal
16 Pearl Harbor/Honolulu Potential Inundation Pearl Harbor 1 km 940mb Surge 955mb Surge Hickham AFB Industrial Area HNL Airport 970mb Surge 940mb Runup 955mb Runup 970mb Runup Still water surge is important Runup significant along exposed coastlines Airport would experience some inundation
17 Southwest Oahu Potential Inundation 1 km 940mb Surge 955mb Surge Kahe Power Plant Kapolei Refinery Ewa Beach 970mb Surge 940mb Runup 955mb Runup 970mb Runup Runup significant along exposed coast Hundreds of meters inland Much is industrial land Ewa Beach would have inundation
18 Conclusions One-dimensional Boussinesq computations give reasonable estimates of runup over complex topographies Limited by one dimensionality, bare earth assumption Results are conservative, especially in built up areas Runup can dominate over surge on steep topographies When combined with large scale wave/water level simulations, can give estimates of worst case inundations Significant areas of Honolulu would be underwater with a direct hurricane strike
