 ract\n In relation to the study of t
 he evolution of coastal flooding, fo
 cus is given to the role of impulsiv
 e waves and their potential impact o
 f coasts. An analysis is proposed la
 rgely based on use of analytical and
  numerical solutions developed by th
 e UNIVPM Hydraulics research group.\
 n Starting from the setup of the Non
 linear Shallow Water Equations (NSWE
 ) framework, an assessment of the In
 itial Value vs Boundary Value Proble
 m is given, followed by the descript
 ion of some applications and the pro
 posal of a new set of Dispersive NSW
 E.\n Numerical solvers for the NSWE 
 and DNSWE are also briefly described
 , by highlighting some similarities 
 and differences with Boussinesq-type
  solutions. Finally, a quasi-3D mode
 l is described, its performances bei
 ng evaluated in relation to both imp
 ulsive and periodic waves.\n Applica
 tions are also shown, of a recent si
 mplified approach that blends analyt
 ical and numerical techniques to pro
 vide information of tsunami impacts 
 on large regions of coastline with a
  relatively small numerical effort. 
 A modeling chain approach is used to
  enable use of wave information typi
 cally employed in tsunamis warning p
 rocedures, then propagated inshore b
 y means of an analytical method base
 d on an extension of Green’s law and
  subsequently by means of high-resol
 ution numerical solutions, this givi
 ng a fairly accurate description of 
 the flooded areas.\n  \n About the S
 peaker\n Maurizio Brocchini is an ex
 pert in the hydrodynamics and morpho
 dynamics of coastal, estuarine and r
 iverine waters, with over 30 years o
 f experience in the field. His main 
 area of research is the mathematical
  and numerical modelling of shallow 
 water dynamics. He graduated in Theo
 retical Physics, with full marks and
  honours, in 1989 at the University 
 of Bologna (Italy). He earned his Ph
 D in Applied Mathematics in 1996 at 
 the University of Bristol (UK).\n Fo
 rmerly Head of the Civil, Building E
 ngineering and Architecture Departme
 nt, at the Università Politecnica de
 lle Marche, Ancona, he is Full Profe
 ssor of Hydraulics and Fluid Mechani
 cs. He was tutor for 21 PhD theses a
 nd for over 50 MSc theses. He has ma
 naged and collaborated on 13 Europea
 n Union competitive projects, 5 comp
 etitive projects launched by interna
 tional organizations outside the Eur
 opean Union, and 6 national competit
 ive research projects funded by the 
 Italian Ministry of Research. He is 
 Associate Editor of the scientific j
 ournal "Journal of Waterways Ports C
 oasts and Ocean Engineering", A.S.C.
 E. He is also a member of the editor
 ial boards of the following journals
 : "Coastal Engineering", Elsevier; "
 Journal of Hydrodynamics", Elsevier;
  "Ocean Engineering", Elsevier. He r
 egularly reviews proposals for over 
 10 research funding agencies in Ital
 y, Europe, and the United States. He
  is author/co-author of over 150 pee
 r-reviewed papers appearing on Scopu
 s/ISI-listed international journals,
  with total citations of over 4600 a
 nd H-index of 36 (Scopus). He was aw
 arded by the European Community a Ma
 rie Curie Fellowship for research in
  the years 1993-1996. Listed among t
 he “World’s Top 2% Scientists”. From
  2023 to present Member of the “Comm
 issione Grandi Rischi” of the Italia
