N2  - A review of papers investigating tsunami wave run-up on a beach is given and the control parameters of the problem are revealed. There are two such parameters in the case of ideal fluid: the bottom sloping angle and the breaking parameter. A stage-by-stage approach for finding run-up characteristics is formulated: the linear calculation of shoreline oscillations and the subsequent non-linear transformation of the solution according to the Riemann method. Solution of the nononedimensional problems of wave run-up on a beach in the linear formulation is obtained.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
