Input and Output files for PTM.

Input Files

Required files

  • Program Control File (*.pcf) – Run time instruction for the model.
  • Mesh file – Bathymetry and boundary information for the model.
    PTM Version 1.0 supports ADCIRC compatible three-noded triangular finite element mesh files (fort.14 or .grd). SMS contains tools to convert mesh files to this format.
  • Hydrodynamic input file – Time varying water surface elevation and depth-averaged velocities.
    Versions of SMS including 9.2 and later supports XMDF (*.h5) format hydrodynamic files. SMS contains tools to convert mesh output files to this format.
  • Native sediment file – Native sediments over the domain defined by the mesh file.

Optional files

  • Sediment source file – The sediment sources in the simulation.
  • Trap file (*.trap) – Locations where information about the simulation should be extracted.
  • Wave file(s) – Time varying information about the wave field.
  • Wave breaking file(s) – Time varying information about wave breaking.
  • PTM Boundary Condition file – Describes the wet/dry interface.

Output Files

The output files use the name given after the keyword :OUTPUT_PREFIX in the program control file and are appended with the following endings:

  • Mapping Output File (*_maps.h5) – Behavior of the flow and native sediments over the whole domain incremented by time.
  • Parcel Data File (*_particles.h5) – Parcel information incremented by time.
  • Echo file (*_input.out) – ASCII file echoing the input parameters of the simulation.
  • Neighbor file (*.neighbors) – Contains mesh connectivity information. Once generated, can be specified as an input file to avoid regenerating for subsequent simulations with a given mesh. If the mesh changes, the neighbor file should be regenerated.
  • Trap Count File (*_count.out) – Contains the time and ID of particles entering a trap
  • Trap Residency File (*_residency.out) – Contains the time particles enter and exit a trap and the total time spent in the trap.
