*OUTWAVE
Data format:
One or several lines with 4 parameters each, as follows:
INO X Y Z
Status :
Optional
Purpose :
Adding the *OUTWAVE keywords creates a text file containing wave kinematics results specified at a certain location. These include wave elevation, wave particle velocity components , wave particle acceleration components and pressure, function of time.
Details :
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
INO | Node number at which the wave characteristics are computed. If INO==0, a constant reference position is used given by its global coordinates. |
X | X global coordinate of the reference point |
Y | Y global coordinate of the reference point |
Z | Z global coordinate of the reference point |
Several lines can be entered. Each line leads to a file tswave_000.txt (the number is the line number). Each file has 8 columns :
- Time(s);
- Elev.(m);
- Vel.X(m/s);
- Vel.Y(m/s);
- Vel.Z(m/s);
- Acc.X(m/s2);
- Acc.Y(m/s2);
- Acc.Z (m/s2)
- Pressure (Pa)
