New Type of Tide embankment for Preventing Tsunami Damage
NAMEKeita Sasaki
AGE11
PRIZEThe Prize of the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology
COMMENTARYThis embankment causes a tsunami that strikes it to roll around in the same place rather than go forward. By rolling around, the tsunami loses strength. Inside the embankment are road tunnels and giant shelters for evacuees.
