ADCIRC: An Advanced Three-Dimensional Circulation Model for Shelves, Coasts, and Estuaries. Report 1. Theory and Methodology of ADCIRC-2DDI and ADCIRC-3DL.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the theory, methodology, and verification of the ADCIRC (ADvanced CIRCulation) finite element numerical models, which are used to simulate hydrodynamic circulation along shelves, coasts, and within estuaries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling hurricane waves and storm surge using integrally-coupled, scalable computations
J. C. Dietrich,Marcel Zijlema,Joannes J. Westerink,L. H. Holthuijsen,Clinton N Dawson,Richard A. Luettich,Robert E. Jensen,Jane McKee Smith,Guus S. Stelling,Gregory W. Stone +9 more
TL;DR: The resulting integrated SWAN + ADCIRC system is highly scalable and allows for localized increases in resolution without the complexity or cost of nested meshes or global interpolation between heterogeneous meshes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Basin to Channel-Scale Unstructured Grid Hurricane Storm Surge Model Applied to Southern Louisiana
Joannes J. Westerink,Richard A. Luettich,Jesse Feyen,Jesse Feyen,John Atkinson,Clinton N Dawson,Hugh Roberts,Mark D. Powell,Jason Dunion,Ethan J. Kubatko,Hasan Pourtaheri +10 more
TL;DR: A basin-to-channel-scale implementation of the Advanced Circulation (ADCIRC) unstructured grid hydrodynamic model has been developed that accurately simulates hurricane storm surge, tides, and river flow in this complex region as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
A High-Resolution Coupled Riverine Flow, Tide, Wind, Wind Wave, and Storm Surge Model for Southern Louisiana and Mississippi. Part I: Model Development and Validation
Shintaro Bunya,J. C. Dietrich,Joannes J. Westerink,Bruce A. Ebersole,Jane McKee Smith,J. H. Atkinson,Robert E. Jensen,Donald T. Resio,Richard A. Luettich,Clinton N Dawson,V. J. Cardone,Andrew T. Cox,Mark D. Powell,H. J. Westerink,H. J. Roberts +14 more
TL;DR: A coupled system of wind, wind wave, and coastal circulation models has been implemented for southern Louisiana and Mississippi to simulate riverine flows, tides, wind waves, and hurricane storm surge in the region as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the physics of storm surges
TL;DR: Despite the potentially catastrophic consequences of storm surges, the physics of surge generation and propagation has historically been poorly understood, and many misconceptions about surges still exist as mentioned in this paper, which is why many misconceptions still exist.
