Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the coupling between the Particle Tracking Model (PTM) and the Coastal Modeling System (CMS). It familiarizes users with the PTM-CMS coupling interface as implemented inside the Surfacewater Modeling System Version 10 (SMS10). The steps necessary for preparing solutions of two-dimensional CMS-Flow and CMS-Wave models for input to the PTM are described, and two examples are given.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Dredging Operations and Engineering Research (DOER) Technical Note (TN) is a tutorial with examples of the PTM, developed jointly by the Coastal Inlets Research Program (CIRP) and DOER Program. This note is applicable to Version 1.0 of PTM. Demirbilek et al. (2005a) describe the PTM interface, and an overview of features and capabilities of the PTM is presented in Demirbilek et al. (2005b). The theoretical formulation and implementation of the PTM are given in a technical report (MacDonald and Davies, in preparation). The PTM is a Lagrangian particle-tracking model that is part of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Surface Water Modeling System, SMS (Zundel 2005, Zundel et al. 1998). It employs a Lagrangian method of tracking particle pathways to estimate migration of sediment particles as influenced by waves and currents. For its input, the PTM requires a geometric surface defining the bottom elevation (depth) over which water level, current velocity vectors, and waves are available at each point in the modeling domain. The user specifies sediment sources and model parameters to perform a PTM simulation within the SMS for a given set of hydrodynamic input (waves, water levels, and currents). The SMS includes commands for layout of the sediment sources, specification of the numerical parameters, and management of the Eulerian quantities (water depth, surface elevation, current velocity).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Dredging Operations and Environmental Research (DOER) Technical Note (TN) describes the graphical interface for the Particle Tracking Model (PTM). The Coastal Inlets Research Program (CIRP) and the DOER Program are jointly developing the PTM. The PTM is described in a series of three technical notes. This technical note, Part I, describes the graphical user interface of Version 1.0 of PTM. Part II (Demirbilek et al. 2005a) provides an overview of general features and capabilities of PTM. Part III (Demirbilek et al. 2005b) is a tutorial with examples. The PTM has been developed for application to dredging and coastal projects, including dredged material dispersion and fate, sediment pathway and fate, and constituent transport. A technical report (MacDonald and Davies, in preparation) provides details about the theory and implementation aspects of the PTM. PTM methodology is based on a parcel calculation technique, in which parcels represent a given mass of sediment subjected to the same forces and exhibiting the same kinematics as a single sediment particle. Each parcel has its own set of attributes (e.g., grain diameter, specific gravity), which influence parcel behavior (entrainment, transport, settling). The PTM employs a Lagrangian particle tracking technique to estimate migration of sediment particles as influenced by the hydrodynamic forcing inputs, including current velocity and wave fields. This approach compliments the Eularian sediment transport and morphological models, and can provide information about a specified subset of sediment processes. This information may be applied in projects without the more resource-intensive application of a Eularian sediment transport model.
