In general, to build a TUFLOW model in SMS, use the following steps:

3. Review and edit elevation data.
  1. Review and set object Projections.
  2. Remove erroneous points.
  3. Add breaklines.
  4. Merge datasets.
  5. Stamp new features (channel, roadway embankment, or other).
4. Define model limits (domain).
  1. Generate a Mesh Generator map coverage.
  2. Digitize arcs to define mesh limits.
  3. Define mesh density and type (in Mesh Generator coverage).
  4. Create arcs along key breaklines and notable features (banklines, structures, piers, road embankments, etc.).
  5. Set vertex spacing on arcs to define mesh element size.
  6. Specify mesh type for each polygon (pave / patch / none).
  7. Assign scatter data.
  8. Generate mesh.
5. Define materials.
  1. Create a SRH-2D Materials coverage.
  2. Digitize material areas (polygons).
  3. Define material types and Manning’s roughness values.
  4. Defining materials from land use GIS data.
6. Set-up boundary conditions.
  1. Create a SRH-2D Boundary Conditions coverage.
  2. Assign boundary conditions to arcs.
    • Inlet Q (options).
    • Exit-H (options, including new normal/critical depth tool).
    • Internal inflows and outflows (highlight approach – hole in mesh).
    • Monitoring Lines.
    • Optional Wall boundary conditions.
    • Structures (culverts, weirs, bridge pressure flow).
7. Define Materials.
  1. Create new simulation.
  2. Add components to simulation.
  3. Set up Model Control parameters.
  4. Check the model.
  5. Simulation execution.
  6. Troubleshooting.
8. TUFLOW simulation setup.
  1. Create new simulation.
  2. Add components to simulation.
  3. Set up Model Control parameters.
  4. Check the model.
  5. Simulation execution.
  6. Troubleshooting.
9. Run TUFLOW.
  1. Check model simlation.
  2. Run TUFLOW.
10. Review results.
  1. Open _XMDF file.
  2. Results layers.
  3. Observation lines.
  4. Summary table.
  5. Run the Plot Wizard.
  6. Data calculator.
11. Compare datasets.
12. Data visualization.
