Descriptions
Numerical simulations on Tsunami induced by west off Fukuoka earthquake are conducted. Characteristics of the Tsunami are investigated by varying a parameter of rake among fault parameters to 4, 30, 60 90degree. It is found that the maximum Tsunami wave height appear at Maebaru city and Genkai Island. The maximum Tsunami wave height is 7 cm when the rake is 4 degree. On the other hand, the maximum height is 72 cm when the rake is 90 degree.
