Tsunami Impact Assessment on Coastal Zone Infrastructure Case studies & ITIS2012 application to high and moderate intensity events. Abs, 1st International Scientific Conference on Design and Management of Port Coastal and Offshore Works (DMPCO 2019), 8-11 May 2019, Athens, Greece.

As a result of population growth, urbanization and a movement towards the coast, the vulnerability of coastal areas has greatly increased. Besides coastal ecosystems, there are nowadays many human and economic resources at risk. Coastal zones of modern organized cities usually include, port and industry facilities as well as vital lifelines, increasing the risk in case of a natural disaster occurrence. Tsunami waves hits par excellence coastal zones. This work aims to highlight and quantify the tsunami impact on coastal zone infrastructure by applying the Integrated Tsunami Intensity Scale (ITIS2012) in recent high and moderate intensity events.
