Engineering with Nature (EWN) is a tool to aid in implementing engineering features into natural environments.

EWN Features Coverage

The EWN Features coverage allows creating feature objects to represent structures.

EWN Polygon Properties Dialog

The EWN Polygon Properties dialog

Access the EWN Polygon Properties dialog by right-clicking on a polygon in an EWN Features coverage and selecting the Assign EWN Features command. The dialog has the following options:

• Name – This allows assigning a name to the polygon.
• Classification – If the polygon represents one of the EWN types, it can provide an N value (roughness) both here and when generating a dataset. The available classification types include the following:
  • "Unassigned"
  • "Mesh Transition Zone"
  • "Internal ADCIRC Levee"
  • "East Coast Mangroves"
  • "Gulf Coast Mangroves"
  • "West Coast Marsh"
  • "East Coast Beach/Dune"
  • "West Coast Beach/Dune"
  • "Gulf Coast Beach/Dune"
• Insert Feature
• Manning's N
• Elevation
• Slope
• Maximum Slope Distance
• Maximum Transition Distance
• Metadata
• Preview
  • Select UGrid/Mesh
  • Element area change limit
  • Generate mesh with Feature
  • Add new mesh to SMS on exit

Sediment Volume Management Coverage

The feature object Sediment Volume Managementdialog

The Sediment Volume Management coverage allows calculating cut and fill for sediment volume. The coverage allows assigning sediment attributes to polygons and also provides a tool to perform sediment volume calculations.

Sediment Volume Management Polygon Attributes

The Sediment Volume Management dialog for polygon attributes can be reach by right-clicking on a selected polygon and selecting the Sediment Properties command. The dialog contains the following properties:

• Name
• Type
  • None
  • Specified cut region
  • Specified fill region
  • Available cut region
  • Available fill region
• Cut/fill option
  • Constant elevation
  • Relative thickness
  • Total volume by elevation
  • Total volume by thickness
• Value
• Priority
• Priority value

Sediment Volume Management Tool

The Sediment Volume Management tool

The Sediment Volume Management tool dialog is reached by right-clicking on the sediment volume management coverage and selecting the Sediment Volume Management command. The dialog has the following options:

Input

• Source geometry
• Maximum slope

Computations

• Source/Normalize
• Compute
• Save to File
• Sum of cut
• Net of cut
• Sum of fill
• Net of file

Output options

• New geometry name
• Generate new geometry on OK

EWN Classification Properties

The EWN Classification Properties dialog

The EWN Classification Properties dialog is accessed by right-clicking on the EWN Features coverage and selecting the EWN Classification Properties... command. The dialog has the following options:

• Display Options – Includes a list of the available polygon types when assigning polygon attributes.

On/Off toggles - ??? used to control which polygons are displayed

Color/fill pattern - used for display of polygons

Default roughness - used when generating a roughness dataset for ADCIRC

meta data for each type is displayed in EWN Dialog (described below)
