The Spectral Energy dialog can be opened through STWAVE | Spectral Energy, BOUSS-2D | Spectral Energy, CGWAVE | Spectral Energy, or by choosing STWAVE | Model Control, clicking on the Boundary Conditions button to open the Boundary Conditions dialog, and then clicking the Spectral Energy button. The spectrum represents energy densities at discrete values over a range of angles and a range of frequencies for a given wave condition.

Tools

Grid Options

  • Create Grid – Brings up the Create Spectral Energy Grid dialog.
