A structure built along a body of water to prevent flooding onto nearby land is called a seawall or a flood wall. These barriers help to reduce erosion and protect property from water damage during high tides or storms.
An earth embankment is a structure constructed using compacted earth to prevent water from entering or flooding an area. It is commonly used as a barrier against rivers or as part of drainage systems in various engineering and construction projects.
The location on the surface of the earth immediately above the origin of a fault is called the "epicenter."
A wall of water caused by an earthquake is called a tsunami. Tsunamis are large ocean waves generated by seismic activity such as underwater earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
A retaining wall is a structure built to support soil and prevent erosion, commonly used to hold back water. It is typically made of earth or stone, with a design that withstands the pressure exerted by the water behind it. These walls are essential in controlling erosion and managing water flow in various landscapes.
if you are talking about water it is called a tsunami that could knock you into a brick wall or a wall that could make you either die or get unconsious
a dam
When the wall moves away from the backfill, the earth pressure on the wall decreases. This minimum pressure is called active earth pressure. On the other hand if the wall moves towards the backfill, the earth pressure increases. This maximum pressure is called passive earth pressure.

A ceramic vessel with a spigot that is made to hang on a wall is called a "wall-mounted ceramic water dispenser."

Bulkheads is the navy term for wall, therefor to keep the water in.
Pretty much. One reason Wall Street is called that is the colony had to build a massive wall ( it is still there ) to keep back the water so they could build. When the Twin Towers fell and they showed the land under the towers you could see part of that wall.
