Yes If above answer is no, provide end year model development Code development status When did you indicate the 'code development status'? Model availability As code Source code availability (Or provide future intension) Through web repository Source web address http://chl.erdc.usace.army.mil/chl.aspx?p=s&a=SOFTWARE;9 Source csdms web address Program license type Other Program license type other NOT SURE Memory requirements -- Typical run time -- Describe input parameters Bathymetry Incident Wave Spectra Current Fields Input format ASCII Other input format Describe output parameters Selected Wave Spectra Selected Wave Parameters Wave Parameter Fields Breaker Index Fields Radiation Stress Gradient Fields Output format ASCII Other output format Pre-processing software needed? Yes Describe pre-processing software To assist STWAVE users in generating input files and visualizing output files, a user interface has been built for STWAVE within the Surface-water Modeling System (Brigham Young University Engineering Computer Graphics Laboratory (ECGL) 1997). The SMS interface supports grid generation, interpolation of current fields, generation of input spectra, visualization of wave heights, periods, and directions, and visualization of output spectra. Non-Corps users can get information from ECGL (http://www.ecgl.byu.edu). Post-processing software needed? No Describe post-processing software Visualization software needed? Yes If above answer is yes Other visualization software The SMS interface supports grid generation, interpolation of current fields, generation of input spectra, visualization of wave heights, periods, and directions, and visualization of output spectra. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers users are supported through the Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, and non-Corps users can get information from ECGL (http://www.ecgl.byu.edu). Describe processes represented by the model STWAVE simulates depth-induced wave refraction and shoaling, current- induced refraction and shoaling, depth- and steepness-induced wave breaking, diffraction, wind-wave growth, and wave-wave interaction and whitecapping that redistribute and dissipate energy in a growing wave field. Describe key physical parameters and equations See manual, is uploaded Describe length scale and resolution constraints -- Describe time scale and resolution constraints -- Describe any numerical limitations and issues Model Assumptions Mild bottom slope and negligible wave reflection Spatially homogeneous offshore wave conditions Steady-state waves, currents, and winds Linear refraction and shoaling Depth-uniform current Bottom friction is neglected Describe available calibration data sets See the following studies: http://chl.erdc.usace.army.mil/chl.aspx?p=s&a=ARTICLES;276&g=46 http://chl.erdc.usace.army.mil/chl.aspx?p=s&a=ARTICLES;277&g=46 http://chl.erdc.usace.army.mil/chl.aspx?p=s&a=ARTICLES;278&g=46 Upload calibration data sets if available: Describe available test data sets -- Upload test data sets if available: Describe ideal data for testing -- Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Corps Districts Offices, other Government Agencies, Universities, and Private Consultants. Is there a manual available? Yes Upload manual if available: Media:Erdc-chl-sr-01-11.pdf Model website if any http://chl.erdc.usace.army.mil/chl.aspx?p=s&a=SOFTWARE;9 Model forum / discussion board -- Comments This module is interfaced via the Coastal Engineering Design and Analysis System (CEDAS) interface.
