Abstract
An Explicit Finite Element Method has been applied to simulate the 2004 Great Indian Ocean Tsunami (IOT). The Sperical Shallow Water Equations (SSWE) is used to model the oceanic flow. The domain comprising of Bay of Bengal, Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean has been considered for simulation with an initial disturbance resembling the type and location of the 2004 IOT. The Wave elevations and its deformations have been depicted in the results. The wave heights obtained from the numerical simulation have been compared with the signature data for the Tamil Nadu Coast. The Effect of coriolis force on tsunami has also been studied and reported in this paper.
