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

Each of the structures can provide an optional attribute value. The value specified is as follows:

CMS-Wave Structure Attributes
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
