 t\n In relation to the study of the 
 evolution of coastal flooding, focus
  is given to the role of impulsive w
 aves and their potential impact of c
 oasts. An analysis is proposed large
 ly based on use of analytical and nu
 merical solutions developed by the U
 NIVPM Hydraulics research group.\n S
 tarting from the setup of the Nonlin
 ear Shallow Water Equations (NSWE) f
 ramework, an assessment of the Initi
 al Value vs Boundary Value Problem i
 s given, followed by the description
  of some applications and the propos
 al of a new set of Dispersive NSWE.\
 n Numerical solvers for the NSWE and
  DNSWE are also briefly described, b
 y highlighting some similarities and
  differences with Boussinesq-type so
 lutions. Finally, a quasi-3D model i
 s described, its performances being 
 evaluated in relation to both impuls
 ive and periodic waves.\n Applicatio
 ns are also shown, of a recent simpl
 ified approach that blends analytica
 l and numerical techniques to provid
 e information of tsunami impacts on 
 large regions of coastline with a re
 latively small numerical effort. A m
 odeling chain approach is used to en
 able use of wave information typical
 ly employed in tsunamis warning proc
 edures, then propagated inshore by m
 eans of an analytical method based o
 n an extension of Green’s law and su
 bsequently by means of high-resoluti
 on numerical solutions, this giving 
 a fairly accurate description of the
  flooded areas.\n  \n About the Spea
 ker\n Maurizio Brocchini is an exper
 t in the hydrodynamics and morphodyn
 amics of coastal, estuarine and rive
 rine waters, with over 30 years of e
 xperience in the field. His main are
 a of research is the mathematical an
 d numerical modelling of shallow wat
 er dynamics. He graduated in Theoret
 ical Physics, with full marks and ho
 nours, in 1989 at the University of 
 Bologna (Italy). He earned his PhD i
 n Applied Mathematics in 1996 at the
  University of Bristol (UK).\n Forme
 rly Head of the Civil, Building Engi
 neering and Architecture Department,
  at the Università Politecnica delle
  Marche, Ancona, he is Full Professo
 r of Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics.
  He was tutor for 21 PhD theses and 
 for over 50 MSc theses. He has manag
 ed and collaborated on 13 European U
 nion competitive projects, 5 competi
 tive projects launched by internatio
 nal organizations outside the Europe
 an Union, and 6 national competitive
  research projects funded by the Ita
 lian Ministry of Research. He is Ass
 ociate Editor of the scientific jour
 nal "Journal of Waterways Ports Coas
 ts and Ocean Engineering", A.S.C.E. 
 He is also a member of the editorial
  boards of the following journals: "
 Coastal Engineering", Elsevier; "Jou
 rnal of Hydrodynamics", Elsevier; "O
 cean Engineering", Elsevier. He regu
 larly reviews proposals for over 10 
 research funding agencies in Italy, 
 Europe, and the United States. He is
  author/co-author of over 150 peer-r
 eviewed papers appearing on Scopus/I
 SI-listed international journals, wi
 th total citations of over 4600 and 
 H-index of 36 (Scopus). He was award
 ed by the European Community a Marie
  Curie Fellowship for research in th
 e years 1993-1996. Listed among the 
 “World’s Top 2% Scientists”. From 20
 23 to present Member of the “Commiss
 ione Grandi Rischi” of the Italian C
 ivil Protection – Tsunami Section.\n
