Output of the calculator is displayed on the bottom portion of the dialog after the Calculate button is
clicked. The output is organized into a spreadsheet. When the dialog first comes up, the values in the
output parameters spreadsheet are blank. The output parameters calculated are:
(1) Runup, R. This value corresponds to Rmax for regular waves and R2% for irregular waves. The
units of runup are in meters.
(2) Overtopping, Q. A single overtopping value will be computed. The units for overtopping are
3
(m /s)/m.
g. Model control parameters: The Model Control... command in the BOUSS-2D menu
brings up the Model Control dialog shown in Figure 9.
Figure 9. BOUSS-2D Model Control dialog
This dialog is divided into sections for different types of parameters which are used by the model as
it runs. These include:
(1) Input data sets. These inputs specify spatially varied input parameters for the model. In
addition to the bathymetry, BOUSS-2D can utilize spatially varied damping, porosity and currents. In
this section, the user defines whether these inputs are used (None is selected if not), and if so, how
