SMS provides pre- and post- processing for several numeric models. These models are developed and maintained by government or commercial entities rather than the developers of SMS.
Hydraulic Models
- ADCIRC (ADvanced CIRCulation Model) - Widely applied coastal circulation and coastal flooding model. Developed commercially.
- Coastal Modeling System CMS-FLOW - Suite of models that simulates a wide variety of coastal processes. Developed and maintained by the USACE.
- FESWMS - Developed in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
- HYDRO AS-2D - Developed commercially in Germany. Accessed through the generic model interface
- TABS - Suite of models for solving hydrodynamics and transport problems maintained by the USACE.
- TUFLOW - Finite difference model featuring combined 1D/2D models, very stable wetting drying, and advanced simulation management for Coastal, Riverine or Urban applications.
Wave Models
Harbor Design
- BOUSS-2D - Wave climate, circulation from waves, & sea state using the Boussinesque equations
- CGWAVE - Phase resolving wave reflection and refraction analysis
Wave Generation and Transformation
- STWAVE - Finite difference spectral wave energy model
- CMS-Wave (WABED)
Other Models
- Generic - Rather than a specific model interface, the "Generic" model interface in the mesh module is a collection of interface objects that can be configured by the user to generate specific types of data.
- PTM - Lagrangian Particle Tracking Model which tracks sediment particles based upon input hydrodynamics and wave effects.
