Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
This paper initially reviews the sequence of events surrounding the tsunami disaster, which occurred on December 26, 2004, and how this affected Thailand. The authors then consider the concepts of minimisation of the after effects, on local people, homes, businesses, stock, supplies and services, and tourism. In these respects, consideration is first given to the built environment and its operation. Then the possibilities for protection, using both natural and man-made methods are reviewed. This is followed by suggestions for research projects, both small and large, suitable for undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students in an international collaborative environment, is presented. Finally, some conclusions are made on the feasibility of such projects |
