Definitions
- the invention is based on a weakness point in the mechanical wave current that moves water molecules.
- the giant tsunami is the largest waves of water.
- the invention dynamically breaks up the energy of each wave of water current.
- the device looks like the curtains made up of panels which reduce the sunlight and protect the users.
- the invention was named as "Curtain Tsunami".
- the word curtain refers to the mechanism by which the device works and the way it looks.
- the device divides the current coming from waves. It splits the one large current of the water wave into several separated small currents in the form of marine waves exactly the way the sunlight is blocked out by the panels of curtains.
- the mechanism of the device involves the partition of the mechanical wave energy current of each wave into small energy currents in water.
- the small waves become separated, spaced and different in terms of speed and directions.
- Curtain Tsunami is a device consisting of separated panels with sharp angels called (water wave curtain panels). They split the water molecules of the mechanical waves of water passing through them. These panels are positioned vertically, having a weight at the bottom and a floater in the middle. The panels are gathered with a cord called the wave curtain panels cord. This cord is connected to the cord of the anchor which serves as a ground base of the device. Each panel consists of one piece; half of it is floating and the other is sunken, so that it touches the upper and lower points of the mechanical waves.
- Curtain Tsunami is a dynamic machine floating in water. It consists of floaters that block out the movement of the waves. These break up the energy current of the wave by separating the water molecules. This causes new unrests due to the currents resulting from the main current. The small current itself turn into splashes that eventually end and fade away in the sea.
- curtain Tsunami works on one principle: splitting the mechanical waves of three dimensions: length, width and height. This process is done on the innovative panels or any type of barriers such as coral shapes and interlocking shapes.
- curtain Tsunami consists of several models that contain similar techniques stemming from the same principal of the invention.
- One of the most common models is the separated vertical panels. Half of them are floating and the other half is sunken under the sea water. They are held together by cords that run through of them to fix them to a specific place. These cords are connected to a central weight in the solid ground of the sea which serves as an anchor. The following is a further clarification of the device.
- the cord of the curtain panels has three main functions:
- the anchor is a weight that fixes everything connected to it, clinging to the ground of the deep sea. It serves as a fixer in the solid ground, (figure 5)
- the cord is a strong cord that connects the anchor and the cord of the water wave curtain.
- the anchor cord must be the strongest of the cords of Curtain Tsunami, (figure 3)
- the raft should also carry a hinge between the rotary anchor cord and the curtain cord. It must be flexible and responsive to the shakes of the waves in all directions.
- the other models of Curtain Tsunami contains one piece to be installed in the sea which contains the free of floating panels and a balance raft in the base holding the panels as shown in figure 6.
- curtain Tsunami in efficiency and manufacturing Curtain Tsunami can effectively eliminate the hazard of tsunami by up to 90%.
- the device also calms the water surface in the area behind the device. If completely constructed, the device needs periodical and continuous maintenance.
- Curtain Tsunami is manufactured with sizes suitable for the region to be protected. It does not have a limited length or width.
- Drawing 3 illustrates how the panels of the water wave curtain are vertically positioned. This represents the dynamic mechanism that black out the energy current of the mechanical waves in water and the panels vertically and horizontally.
- Drawing 3 also shows how the final result of the effect of the water waves break up is displayed on Curtain Tsunami.
- the device is a device floating on the surface of the water. It is dynamically assembled on the fixed pieces free of mechanical movement. These work by the dynamic movement of the water which results from the mechanical wave current in the water molecules.
- the device can solve many problems that happen to costal cities as a result of the tsunami. Installed in the sea off the city or the region exposed to such waves, the device eliminates the resulting hazard of the tsunami and protects the region against the devastating effects of the tsunami keeping it calm and safe.
- It can be also utilized as a wave breaker to protect coasts and the marine ports where yachts and boats gather as an alternative to the concrete or rock breaker.
- curtain Tsunami For best performance of the service provided by this invention, Curtain Tsunami must be located near to earthquakes and landslides zones that cause the tsunami risk by 35%. The device must also be far from the region or the city to be protected against tsunami risk by 65%, taking the length of the device into consideration. This is for several reasons:
- the waves passing through the panels disappear when they are divided into small current of small waves based on the space between the panels of the water wave curtain. After passing through the device, the scattered energy of waves is gradually weakened due to the unrest of the scattered small current along the far way to the coast of the protected region or city.
- the length and width of the water mechanical wave It is longer and less high in the deep water.
- the device may impede the maritime traffic.

Abstract
Le rideau « Curtain Tsunami » est un dispositif constitué de panneaux séparés à angles aigus appelés « panneaux de rideau à vagues ». Ceux-ci séparent les molécules d'eau des ondes mécaniques de l'eau qui les traversent. Ces panneaux sont positionnés verticalement et présentent un poids au niveau de la partie inférieure et un flotteur au milieu. Les panneaux sont réunis à l'aide d'une corde appelée corde de panneaux de rideau à vagues. Cette corde est reliée à la corde de l'ancre qui sert de base au sol du dispositif. Chaque panneau est constitué d'un seul tenant ; la moitié de celui-ci est flottante et l'autre est submergée, de sorte à être en contact avec les points supérieur et inférieur des vagues mécaniques.
