This large flume can generate the world's highest waves of 3.5 m and also the world's largest tsunamis of 2.5 m .
Small models cannot be used to verify the mechanism of a disaster striking breakwaters or seawalls, including ground motion and structure destruction. LHGF has enabled the use of nearly life-size models.
PARI is now investigating the mechanism of destruction by high waves and tsunamis and conducting research on disaster prevention and mitigation.
* This flume (184 m long x 3.5 m wide x 12 m deep) is the world's largest.
