Abstract
This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation on the impact of dam-break-induced surges on a vertical wall. The instantaneous surge height and dynamic pressure on a vertical wall were measured for surges with different reservoir depths of H = 200 mm, 250 mm, and 300 mm. The time-histories of horizontal pressure on the wall were measured using the miniaturized pressure transducers, and the surge heights were recorded with an ultrasonic sensor. The relationships between dynamic pressure and surge height on the vertical wall and during the impact were obtained from recorded raw data. The experimental results highlighted detailed processes on the variation of impact pressure during the surge propagation, impact on the wall, runup, falling, and breakup of the turbulent flow. The time-histories of surge height and dynamic pressure were analyzed, and the results were compared with the hydrostatic pressure on the wall to study wave breaking mechanism of tsunami waves on the wall. Dynamic pressures at the impact instant were found to be approximately three times the corresponding static pressure in the bed, in good agreement with previous research Moreover, the maximum surge runup heights on the wall were between 2.1 and 2.3 times the corresponding initial reservoir depths. The vertical distributions of impact pressure were divided into two hydrodynamic regimes. Based on the impact duration, the first regime occurred less than 0.1 s after the impact with highly non-linear pressure distributions, and the second regime showed a semi-hydrostatic pressure distribution from 0.5 s to 0.7 s. The results presented in this study are suitable for the design of coastal infrastructures and can be used to validate numerical models.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
