open TELEMAC-MASCARET The mathematically superior suite of solvers

Hello,

I am trying to make a realistic model. Therefore I need to force my oceanic boundary with a realistic tide.

I had amplitudes and phases for the main harmonics at different points around my boundary and I have tried so far to reconstruct the free surface signal within bord.f but it is not satisfactory as there are various nodal and phase adjustements needed to get a proper tide.

The easy way to workaround this difficulty is to input ascii files in which tidal elevation time series are known (from tidal gage, other model output,..).

I would like to know if there is already a neap subroutine that do interpolation in time and space from spread data inputs to precise HBOR at boundary points.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards.

-Alexis

Dear Alexis,

If you want to venture a bit more in the advanced use of TELEMAC, you can find a more detailed description of how to use SL.f with a temporal- and spatial- variation of your level boundary, and that would work in parallel, please refer to the post #749, answering Steve Renaud on the subject of "Spatial and temporal varying boundary conditions".

There are details of Fortran code and of LIQUID BOUNDARY FILE setup.

Sébastien.
