The Gencade Model Control dialog is used to set beach conditions, lateral boundary conditions and general simulation options. This document highlights the more commonly used options. Refer to the GenCade web site for a more detailed description of how these parameters affect the model results.
Model Setup Tab
The following parameters are specified in the model setup tab:
- Simulation
- Title – Title of simulation run.
- Full print output – Path and name of printed output file.
- Computational Time
- Start Date – Simulation start date.
- End Date – Simulation end date.
- Time Step – Model time step in hours.
- Recording Time Step – Recorded model time step in hours.
- Print Dates – Dates to save simulated shoreline. Use the Add button to create dates and the Remove button to delete any unwanted dates.
Beach Setup Tab
The following parameters are specified in the beach setup tab:
- Sand and Beach Data
- Effective Grain Size – Medium sediment grain size in millimeters.
- Average Berm Height – In meters.
- Closure Depth – In meters.
- Longshore Sand Transport Calibration Coefficients
- K1 – 0.1<K1<1
- K2 – 0.5K1<K2<1.5K1
Seaward BC Tab
The following parameters are specified in the seaward boundary condition tab:
- Input Wave Adjustments
- Height Amplification Factor
- Angle Amplification Factor
- Angle Offset
- Wave Components to Apply (Primary or Primary & Secondary)
- Number of Cells in Offshore contour Smoothing Window
Lateral BC Tab
The following parameters are specified in the lateral boundary condition tab for the left and right lateral boundary condition:
- Type
- Pinned
- Moving
- Shoreline Displacement Velocity
- Gated
- Length of Groin from Shoreline to Seaward Tip
Adaptive Time Steps Tab
The following parameters are specified in the adaptive time steps tab:
- Use adaptive time steps
- Use defaults
- Threshold minimum
- Threshold maximum
- Number of days stable
- Stability minimum
- Stability maximum
