CMS-Wave Model: Part 3: Grid Nesting and Application Example for Rhode Island South Shore Regional Sediment Management Study

摘要

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the grid nesting capability of the Coastal Modeling System (CMS) wave model CMS-Wave available in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Surface- water Modeling System (SMS). The grid nesting for wave transformation is useful in applications where a smaller computational domain resides fully or partially inside a larger grid domain. The theoretical background and user's manual for CMS-Wave are provided by Lin et al. (2008). CMS-Wave is part of the CMS developed under the Coastal Inlets Research Program (CIRP) for simulating combined waves, currents, sediment transport and morphology change at coastal inlets, estuaries and river mouths.
