WESPE

Basic Information

Name of Program

WESPE

Version-Date

V1.x/August 1999

Description-Date

August 1999

Catchwords

fetch limited waves
one-dimensional wave spectrum
JONSWAP-spectrum
TMA-spectrum

Short Description of Functionality

Program WESPE calculates in interactive mode

• different spectral moments,
• integrated wave parameters and
• JONSWAP or TMA wave spectra

in dependence on wind velocity, fetch length and water depth.

Input-Files

1. Notice: no input files required because of interactive data input.

Output-Files

1. (optional) one-dimensional spectra (TMA and JONSWAP), boundary values and parameters (filetype spek.out)
2. (optional) one-dimensional TMA-spectrum (filetype tma)

Methodology

The calculations of JONSWAP- or TMA-spectra are based on the laws for fetch limited growth of waves. TMA-spectrum may be also displayed using gnuplot software.
