*KINOPTADD

Data format:

A maximum of two lines as follows:

IGR1 IWRITE BRATIO SAFAC ITABC NBELOUT
IEL_1 ... IEL_N

Status :

Optional

Restriction :

Groups of elements IGR1 must have been previously defined. *KINOPTION must have been previously defined.

Purpose :

To specify additional calculation settings for wave kinematics along groups of elements.

Details:

Parameter Description
IGR1 group number (a *KINOPTION with option = 3 is defined on that group). If IGR1=0, all groups with option = 3 are considered
IWRITE IWRITE can be equal to 0, 1, or 2, it is used to write wave output
IWRITE = 0 : No writing
IWRITE = 1 : Writing in an ASCII file "wavest_GRP1name.txt" of information about the wave height finally used along the riser group
IWRITE = 2 : Full writing with time series of wave elevation at the middle of the NBELOUT selected elements IEL1,...IELN. If IWRITE=2, NBELOUT must be defined as well as the list of element numbers
ITABCUR ID number of table defined by *TABLEMCOL with 2 columns providing the current velocity (m/s) along the group function of the abscissa (m) along the group
BRATIO Wave breaking height ratio
SAFAC Safety factor on breaking height : the wave height is adapted such that is is at most equal to BRATIO*SAFAC*WATER_DEPTH
ITABCUR ID number of table defined by *TABLEMCOL with 2 columns providing the current velocity (m/s) along the group function of the abscissa (m) along the group
NBELOUT To define the number of elements for time series output of wave elevation, only non zero if IWRITE=2
IEL_i List of elements for time series wave elevation output. The wave elevation is computed at mid element. This line is only provided if NBELOUT>0
