intro story D-Flow FM

 

D-Flow Flexible Mesh

D-Flow Flexible Mesh (D-Flow FM) is the new software engine for hydrodynamical simulations on unstructured grids in 1D-2D-3D. Together with the familiar curvilinear meshes from Delft3D 4, the unstructured grid can consist of triangles, pentagons (etc.) and 1D channel networks, all in one single mesh. It combines proven technology from the hydrodynamic engines of Delft3D 4 and SOBEK 2 and adds flexible administration, resulting in:

  • Easier 1D-2D-3D model coupling, intuitive setup of boundary conditions and meteorological forcings (amongst others).
  • More flexible 2D gridding in delta regions, river junctions, harbours, intertidal flats and more.
  • High performance by smart use of multicore architectures, and grid computing clusters.
An overview of the current developments can be found here.
 
The D-Flow FM - team would be delighted if you would participate in discussions on the generation of meshes, the specification of boundary conditions, the running of computations, and all kinds of other relevant topics. Feel free to share your smart questions and/or brilliant solutions!

Delft3D

Hi

I am new to Delft software. I am planning to use Delft 3D for some morphology project. My queries are:

1. For simulation kernel I will download it from https://svn.oss.deltares.nl/repos/delft3d/tags/6118/. Will it be ok. I have also found Revision 6268 in https://svn.oss.deltares.nl/repos/delft3d/trunk/. What is the difference?
2. It is written that the log of tag "2367" reads:
DELWAQ Version 5.00.00.2367
Delft3D-FLOW Version 6.00.00.2367
Delft3D-WAVE Version 3.04.01.2367

Can you plz give exact location and name of log in tag 6118.
3. I think Delft 3D in tag 6118 also covers Morphology. Is there any way to check that.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Rajkapoor,

1. Tag vs trunk:
A tagged revision is a fully tested, stable revision from the trunk. Bug fixes, improvements etc. are added to the trunk and may cause damages. Therefore the safest version to use is the latest tagged version, currently https://svn.oss.deltares.nl/repos/delft3d/tags/6118/

2. log of tag
Use the SVN Repo-browser, select https://svn.oss.deltares.nl/repos/delft3d/tags/6118, right-click and select "show log" will result in:
From OSS trunk rev. 6118:
DELWAQ Version 5.05.00.6118
PART Version 3.80.00.6118
Delft3D-FLOW Version 6.02.07.6118
Delft3D-WAVE Version 3.05.01.6118

3. Morphology
Currently, morphology is part of Delft3D-FLOW, so when you download the code, for example from https://svn.oss.deltares.nl/repos/delft3d/tags/6118, then morphology is included. There is no simple method to check/include/exclude this.

Regards,

Adri
