Boundary Conditions in CMS-WAVE

[Bladimir]

First I offer excuses for my bad English.

I’m from Colombia, and we are working whttp://ith SMS 10.0. We have a license to work with this on CMS-WAVE. Personally I’m coursing a Msc in Coastal Enginnering and I have this question. Let’s see the attached figure.

The figure show an explanatory picture. It show a computational grid, a wave an 2 boundaries. My question is: In boundary 2, how does CMS-WAVE work to simulate the wave transformation while they approach the coast?

Thanks for your help.

Since you cannot have wave inputs on adjacent sides, I think what you want to do is rotate the grid so that the incoming waves run along the I axis of the grid. If you are going to want to consider waves from a variety of angles, you need to make your grid large enough that you can force from one side and the waves wouldn't cross the grid laterally before hitting the shoreline.
