| Zusammenfassung |
| The empirical formulations to forecast landslide generated water
waves, recently defined in the framework of a research program
funded by the Italian National Dam Office RID (Registro Italiano
Dighe), are here used to study three real cases of subaerial
landslides which fell down italian artificial reservoirs. It is
well known that impulse water waves generated by landslides
constitute a very dangerous menace for human communities living in
the shoreline of the artificial basin or downstream the dam. In
1963, the menace became tragedy, when a 270 millions m3
landslide fell down the Vajont reservoir (Italy), generated an
impulse wave which destroyed the city of Longarone, and killed
2000 people.
The paper is aimed at presenting the very satisfactorily
reproduction of the events at hand by using forecasting
formulations.
