on a personal computer (PC).
The PC version is available with a companion
graphics package which allows visualization of the numerical results. GENESIS
will also be incorporated into the Coastal Modeling System (CMS) suite of
numerical models accessible on the WES CRAY Y-MP super-computer in FY92.
A
copy of the PC version of GENESIS may be obtained on floppy disk by contacting
Mr. Mark B. Gravens, Coastal Processes Branch, CERC, at (601) 634-3809.
Mr. Gravens is responsible for release of the modeling system and is providing
consulting support for its use within the Corps of Engineers.
Program documentation is contained in WES Technical Report CERC-89-19
(Hanson and Kraus, 1989).
This report provides in-depth discussion of the
methodology of model use in the planning context as well as serves as a
technical reference for the modeling system.
A user's manual and shoreline
modeler's workbook is under preparation and will be available in September
1990. These reports can be requested from the Technical Reports Distribution
Section at WES (601) 634-2571 or (601) 634-2696.
