Input

A GenCade simulation requires the following input files:

  • *.gen – this is the simulation file and contains links to other input files as well as the definition of all the structures and events and other model parameters.
  • *.shi – this contains the initial shoreline position geometry
  • *.wave – there must be one wave file for each wave gage. The file contains the wave events for the associated gage for all time spanning the simulation.

The following are optional input files:

  • *.shr – this contains the regional contour geometry
  • *.shdx – this contains the grid density values for a non-uniform grid

Output

The following files are created by GenCade during a simulation:

  • *.prt – this is a summary printed output file that reports on the status of the run. It is for user review.
  • *.slo – this file contains the output shoreline positions through the simulation.
  • *.off – this file contains the offset from the original shoreline positions. This is the same as the positions fromt he .slo file minus the initial shoreline positions.
  • *.qtr – this file contains the transient, spatially varied transport rates at the specified output times during the simulations.
  • *.mql/*.mqr/*.mqn – this file contains the annual averaged transport rates to the left, to the right and net. This is a integration of the components that make up the qtr.
  • *.irv – One irv file will be created for each inlet in the simulation. It contains the time varying volumes of each of the shoals related to the inlet.
