CGWAVE

Overview

The model CGWAVE (Demirbilek and Panchang 1998) is a two-dimensional wave transformation model that can be used to predict wave properties (wave heights, velocities, pressures, radiation stresses) in domains of complex shape and depth variations when an input wave condition (amplitude, direction, and period; or a spectral combination of these) is provided.

Menus

The following menu commands are available in the CGWAVE Menu:

Command Functionality
Spectral Energy Brings up the spectral energy dialog to define/view wave energy spectra. This command also allows the user to visualize wave spectra.
Assign BC This command is used to assign boundary conditions along a selected node string(s).
Material Properties Material properties can be assigned and defined.
Model Check Check for common problems.
Model Control Brings up the Model Control dialog to specificy model parameters.
Reset 1D Spacing ...
Run CGWAVE Brings up a dialog that allows the user to check what executable of CGWAVE should be run and then runs the model with the currently loaded simulation. As the model runs, a dialog monitors progress of the model and gives the user status messages. When the run is complete, the spatial solutions are read in for analysis and visualization.


How do I?

To learn more about how to use the CGWAVE Model go to the Tutorials section.
