Heller, V., & Spinneken, J. (2015). On the effect of the water body geometry on landslide–tsunamis: physical insight from laboratory tests and 2D to 3D wave parameter transformation. Coastal Engineering, 104, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coastaleng.2015.06.006

Preliminary landslide–tsunami hazard assessment is commonly based on empirical equations derived from wave channel (2D) or wave basin (3D) experiments. The far-field wave in 2D can easily be an order of magnitude larger than in 3D. The present study...

A universal parameter to predict subaerial landslide tsunamis? (2014)
Journal Article
Heller, V., & Hager, W. H. (2014). A universal parameter to predict subaerial landslide tsunamis?. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2(2), https://doi.org/10.3390/jmse2020400

The significance of the impulse product parameter P is reviewed, which is believed to be the most universal parameter for subaerial landslide tsunami (impulse wave) prediction. This semi-empirical parameter is based on the streamwise slide momentum f... Read More about A universal parameter to predict subaerial landslide tsunamis?.
