  1. Tsunamis in the POLA and POLB and Some Considerations of Landslide Generated Waves Fred Raichlen Professor of Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus California Institute of Technology

  2. Harbor - Ship - Wave Interaction Generally the problem is not simply the interaction of waves with the harbor, but the interaction of the moored ships with the wave induced harbor oscillations. For tsunamis, in addition to the direct impact on moored ships there is the effect of the waves on the land-side facilities

  3. Container Ship Mooring in the POLB • Sealand Terminal 1970 • Note ship size relative to mooring. • Note the massive gantry crane.

  4. Pier J : the POLB • Note three tugs holding ship to wharf. • 1995

  5. Wave Induced Oscillations in Harbors • Response of a rectangular harbor (after Ippen & Goda, Lee, J.J.) • Response of Simplified Navy Basin at the POLB (after Lee, J.J.)

  6. Velocity Response at the Navy Basin Harbor Entrance at the POLB With respect to mooring considerations, to resist either far-field or near-field generated tsunamis the velocity and/or the velocity response is important. (after J.J. Lee)

  7. Tsunami Sources for the POLA and the POLB • Tsunamis Generated in the Far-Field • Tsunamis Generated in the Near-Field

  8. Far-Field Tsunamis in the POLA and the POLB • 1946 Aleutian Tsunami • 1960 Chilean Tsunami • 1964 Alaskan Tsunami (after Wilson, B.W., Raichlen, F.)

  9. Southern California Bathymetry California Bight Continental Shelf of San Pedro Bay

  10. Tide Gage Records and Spectra for April 1, 1946 Tsunami

  11. Tide Gage Record at the POLA and the POLB for the 1964 Alaskan Tsunami

  12. A Comparison Between the 1960 Chilean Tsunami and the 1964 Alaskan Tsunami at the POLA and at Ensenada, Mexico

  13. Energy Spectra for the 1964 Alaskan Tsunami at Santa Monica, La Jolla, and the POLA
