SMS:GENESIS Graphical Interface
The GENESIS Graphical Interface includes tools to assist with creating, editing and debugging a GENESIS model. The GENESIS interface exists in the 1-D Grid Module.
Model Control
The GENESIS Model Control Dialog is used to setup the options that apply to the simulation as a whole. These options include time controls, beach parameters, and boundary conditions.
Boundary Conditions
All numeric models require boundary condition data. Boundary conditions in GENESIS are specified in the GENESIS Model Control Dialog.
Beach Properties
Sand and beach data are specified in the GENESIS Model Control Dialog.
Structures
GENESIS includes support for several different types of structures including:
- Breakwaters
- Groins & Jetties
- Seawalls
- Beach Fill
See GENESIS Structures for more information.
Running the Model
The GENESIS Files are written automatically with the SMS project file or can be saved separately using the File | Save GENESIS or File | Save As menu commands. See GENESIS Files for more information on the files used for the GENESIS run.
GENESIS can be launched from SMS using the GENESIS | Run GENESIS menu command.
