Remark: JANET covers many functions related to grid generation and grid modification.

This page gives you a comprehensive overview about all other programs actually used at BAW-DH for the purpose of grid generation and grid modification and with a functionality not covered by JANET.

Complex Workflows

Renewal of Bathymetry for Finite Difference Grids ([tr2.]topo.bin)

Graphical representation of the complex workflow concerning the renewal of bathymetry for various finite difference grids (filtype topo.bin and tr2.topo.bin). This figure is also available as a PostScript file.

Conversion between various Grid File Formats

Graphical representation of several existing conversion possiblities beetween different grid-file formats, also available as PostScript file.

Model-Independent Preprocessing

Modification and Display of Topographic Data

  • SYNGRID: Generation of artificial bearing data (e.g. along circles).
  • DATAUS: Selection of topographic data within an area defined by a surrounding polygon. This program is useful for many many topographic data points.

Boundary Polygon

IGEL2D: Interactive generation of a boundary polygon for a set of (selected) topographic data points.

Fairway Dredger Grid

TRASSE: Generation of nodal points for a fairway dredger grid. From these nodal points a FE-grid may be generated by means of triangulation.

Extraction of depth isolines

VOLUMETH: Extraction of depth isolines out of an FE grid (filetype gitter05.dat/bin).

Conversion of Grid Files

Several types of grid files are currently used at BAW-DH. The following file types are supported:

  1. FD-grid of type FIDISOR/FIDIRB
    filetype topo.bin.
  2. FD-grid of type TRIM
    filetype tr2.topo.bin. and tr2.topo.bin.ind.
  3. FE-grid of type TICAD
    filetype gitter05.dat/bin.
  4. FE-grid of type SELAFIN
    filetype selafin.

Graphic Display of Computational Grids

The following programs are currently available to display FE- and FD-grids:

Preprocessing for Finite Difference Models

The numerical models based on finite differences which are mainly used at BAW-DH are the two-dimensional model TRIM-2D as well as the three-dimensional model TRIM-3D. To generate the grid files for both aforementioned models several programs are can be used.

Generation of a Computational Grid

  • gridfile of type FIDISOR/FIDIRB:
  • gridfile of type TRIM:

Manipulation of Computational Grids

  • gridfile of type FIDISOR/FIDIRB:
  • FD2CUT: Cutting a (small area) partial grid out of a complete grid.
  • FD2DEL: Calculating differences of bathymetry by comparing two existing bathymetries stored on two different FD-grids or, alternatively, modification of an existing bathymetry with earlier calculated differences of bathymetry.
  • FD2DTOP: Conversion for differences of bathymetry (generated by the program FD2DEL) into a FD-gridfile (filetype topo.bin).
  • FD2KACHEL: Cutting a small part of a grid from a complete gridfile, also in combination with numerically calculated results.
  • FD2MOD: Generation of modified differences of bathymetry out of regular differences of bathymetry which have been generated by the program FD2DEL before.
  • FDGLUE: Glue together two originally different grids to form one large new grid.
  • TOP2IN1: Insertion of a small grid into a large grid.
  • gridfile of type TRIM:
  • TR2KACHEL: Cutting a small part of a grid from a complete gridfile, also in combination with numerically calculated results.

Modification of Bathymetry

  • gridfile of type FIDISOR/FIDIRB:
  • FD2ADDTOPO: Update a FIDISOR/FIDIRB topography with data from echo soundings under constraints of digitized structures.
  • FD2BAGGER: Deepening of bathymetry (dredging of material).
  • FD2REM: Deletion of structures (e.g. groynes, dams) from a FD-grid.
  • FD2RIBA: Deepening of bathymetry (dredging of material), but taking into account the effect of dunes or deep areas.
  • FD2SPUELER: Reducing bathymetrical depths (disposal of material).
  • FD2WEVO: Inversion of the sign (from plus to minus or vice-versa) for the bathymetrical depths.
  • GEOMFD2: Generation of a grid out of a set of (representative) topographic data points. The format of the grid file is FIDISOR/FIDIRB (filetype topo.bin).
  • gridfile of type TRIM:
  • TR2REFRESH: Modify (refresh) bathymetry of a FD-grid with bathymetry given as a digital terrain model defined on an FE-grid (filetype gitter05.dat/bin). Different special actions are available to modify bathymetry, e.g. dredging or disposal of material.

Calculation of Volumes and Areas

  • gridfile of type FIDISOR/FIDIRB:
  • FD2HYPSO: Determination of the frequency distribution for bathymetrical depth of a FD-grid.
  • FD2DREV: Determination of dredged volumes.

Preprocessing for Finite Element Models

TELEMAC-2D is based on the finite element method and used at BAW-DH.

Generation of a Computational Grid

  • gridfile of type TICAD (gitter05.dat/bin):
  • GRIDCONVERT: Conversion from an existing grid file (filetype selafin).
  • JANET: Generation of an FE-grid out of point or polygon data or conversion from an existing grid file (filetypes [[SELAFIN|selafin], untrim_grid.dat and tr2.topo.bin are possible).
  • FD2GEOM: Generation of an FE-grid from an existing FIDISOR/FIDIRB grid (filetype topo.bin).
  • TR2GEOM: Generation of an FE-grid from an existing TRIM grid (filetype tr2.topo.bin).

Manipulation of Computational Grids

  • gridfile of type TICAD:
  • DIDASPLIT: Cutting of a grid into tiles, also in combination with calculated data stored in the well known BDF-Format (description available in German only).
  • KACHEL2D: Cutting a partial grid out of a complete grid.

Modification of Bathymetry

  • gridfile of type TICAD:
  • TC2BAGGER: Dredging and disposal of material.
  • UPDA2D: Modify bathymetric depths on a FE-grid using (selected) topographic data points.

Calculation of Volumes and Areas

  • gridfile of Type TICAD:
  • TOPVF: Calculation values for 2D- as well as 3D-areas which are lying in between two different horizontal planes.
  • VOLUMETH: Calculation of area distribution and volume sum function of a region inside an FE mesh.

Preprocessing for unstructured orthogonal grid Models

At BAW-DH we use an unstructured orthogonal grid method: UNTRIM. The grid generator JANET is fitted to the needs of this method. It is therefor no surprise that many grid functions useful for this method are integrated in JANET.
