Lab Session: COMCOT and COULWAVE
Tsunami modeling from generation to inundation
by Dr Patrick Lynett
Department of Civil Engineering, Texas A&M UniversitySyllabus
Using COMCOT (2007)
- Including grid generation
- Specification of initial condition
- Required inputs and specification of nested grids
- Post processing of output data
- Example will focus on a tsunami generated off the coast of Chile.
Using COMCOT (2008)
- Including extracting a time series from COMCOT to use as an incident wave boundary condition
- Generation of input topography files and specification of bottom roughness
- Visualization of output data
- Example will focus on detailed inundation modeling from a tsunami generated off the coast of Chile, and will use output data from COMCOT.
