SMS:RMA2 Files

Input and Output files for RMA2.

Input Files

• ASCII Geometry (*.geo) → GFGEN → Binary Geometry (*.bin) and printed output file (*.ot1) – Consists of the nodes and elements that define the size, shape, and bathymetry of the study area.
• Run Control Input File (*.bc) – Used to tell RMA2 how to run the simulation.
• Hotstart File (*.hot) – (optional) Used to load critical information for the new simulation.
• Alternate Boundary Condition File (*.abc) – Used in conjunction with the primary run control file.
• Run File (*.run) – _gr.run (GFGEN) and _rm.run (RMA2)

Output Files

• Binary Solution (*.sol) – Contains the solutions from the model run.
• Printed Output File (*.ot2)
• Node summary file (*.sum)
• Hotstart Output (*.hot) – (optional) Used to preserve the critical information at the end of a simulation in order for the run to be restarted and continued at a later time.
