Abstract
The main idea of proposed method is based on the novel possibility to create a precise point action of explosion series which produces the diffraction grating. In practice this process could be achieved by bombarding the ocean with explosive material in vicinity of tsunami region from the earth or from airplane. The tsunami velocity could be decreased and the wave front could be disturbed. In this paper the relevant calculations were performed for this overall process to be optimized.
