open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

Hi Laurent,

thanks for that. It worked fine now an I could run it once so far, takes quite long on my system.
Getting some strange interacting regarding the wave height and wonder if there is something written in the manual about that. My waves sometimes are higher than the water depth.

Hi Clemens,

You can find in the user manual the wave processes affected by the currents (variations in time and space, propagation, refraction, Doppler effect, frequency transfers, wave-blocking...)
For the depth-induced breaking, you can play with the different formulations (DEPTH-INDUCED BREAKING DISSIPATION) and their parameters, detailed in the section 4.2 of the manual (p. 26 and followings).
The NUMBER OF BREAKING TIME STEPS is also important, as the MAXIMUM VALUE OF THE RATIO HM0 ON D is a limiter.

Regards,
Laurent
