ISEC Community Workshop:
Benchmark Problems
Discussion group about Benchmarks Challenge
Submitting your benchmark solution
Benchmark #1
Benchmark #2
Two benchmark problems have been prepared for this workshop. The first is a simple beach-only setup for which physical data are provided as part of the benchmark information. The second includes an island feature, and is being conducted as a "blind benchmark" (physical data to be collected separately, prior to the workshop).
Benchmark #2
This experiment has a single solitary wave propagating up a triangular shaped shelf with an island feature located at the offshore point of the shelf. Free surface information was recorded via resistance-type wave gauges and sonic wave gages. Velocity information was recorded via ADV's.For this benchmark, we will compare free surface, velocity, and turbulence information recorded throughout the tank.
A complete description of the data is provided, along with a Matlab script for generating the bathymetry.
Setup
Water depth at Wavemaker: 0.78m
Solitary wave height at wavemaker: 0.39m
Bathymetry: Figures below (which includes the bathymetry data)
can be plotted in Matlab with the plot_bathy.m script.
