SMS:CMS-Wave Cell Attributes Dialog
The CMS-Wave Cell Attributes Dialog is used to assign a cell type to selected Cells. It is opened using the menu command CMS-Wave | Assign Cell Attributes. The following cell types can be assigned:
Default
The elevation values of these cells will be used in order to determine whether flow exists in each cell or not.
Structure
The cell attributes dialog of CMS-Wave supports various structure types. Each type of structure can specify an attribute value. The following structure types are supported:
- Bathymetry modification – for adding alternative feature or structure (immersed or exposed) without modifying the input depth
- Wave runup – for calculation of wave runup and overwash on beach face or structure, and adjacent land
- Floating breakwater – for calculation of transmitted waves of a floating breakwater
- Wall breakwater – for a vertical wall breakwater
- Rubble-mound – for a composite or rubble-mound breakwater
- Piers/docks – High permeability - for a pier or dock
- Rubble-mound breakwater – Low permeability - for a rubble-mound breakwater
Each of the structures can provide an optional attribute value. The value specified is as follows:
| Structure Type | Attribute Name | Description | If Not Provided |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bathymetry modification | Depth | Feature structure depth | Assumed land if not provided |
| Wave runup | Elevation | Beach/structure elevation above mean water level (no effect if < 0.0) | Assumed input depth |
| Floating breakwater | Draft | Floating breakwater draft (no effect if < 0.05 m) | No effect |
| Wall breakwater | Elevation | Beach/structure elevation above mean water level (immersed if < 0.0) | Assumed input depth |
| Rubble-mound | Elevation | Beach/structure elevation above mean water level (immersed if < 0.0) | Assumed input depth |
Monitoring Station
Spectral output is generated for cells designated as monitoring station cells.
Nesting output
Spectral output is generated for nesting output cells cells to be used as input for a nested child grid.
Genesis monitoring station
Displaying Cell Attributes
The symbols and colors used to identify the attributes assigned to cells can be changed in the STWAVE Display Options.
