REGIONAL COASTAL PROCESSES WAVE TRANSFORMATION MODEL 



(RCPMAVE) 



FIELD RESEARCH FACILITY (DUCK , NC) EXAMPLE 



MODEL INPUT: 



UNIFORMLY SIZED, RECTILINEAR GRID MESH 



X - DIRECTION (ON-OFFSHORE) 75 CELLS. EACH 12.00 IN LENSTH 

 Y - DIRECTION (LONGSHORE) 50 CELLS, EACH 24.00 IN LENGTH 



THE ACCELERATION OF GRAVITY IS 9.80. THESE UNITS DETERMINE THE UNITS OF ALL INPUT AND OUTPUT VARIABLES 



THE DEEP WATER WAVE PARAMETERS FOR CASE 1 ARE: HEI6HT= 2.000 PERIOD= 12.000 ANGLE= 20.000 

 THE DEEP WATER WAVE PARAMETERS FOR CASE 2 ARE: HEIGHT= 1.500 PERIOD= 8.000 ANGLE= -35.000 



THE OFFSHORE CONTOURS MAKE AN ANGLE OF .00 DE6REES WITH THE Y AXIS 



THE BATHYMETRY MATRIX IS VARIABLE IN BOTH HORIZONTAL DIRECTIONS AND WAS READ FROM FILE CODE 8 



A WATER LEVEL CHANGE OF .90 WAS ADDED TO THE ENTIRE BATHYMETRY MATRIX
