[skg]

Dear all,
I am new to this group. I would like to know if there is somebody working in SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) Ocean model in this group.
Warm Regards,
skg.

Hi,
Thank you Rajesh.
I am doing the work of customization of SWAN for Bombay_High region.I have worked with SWAN40.31. Now started working with SWAN40.41. Which version of the model are you working with and what are you working on?

Hi...
Actually now i am working with WAM model and i only designed the work with SWAN and will start within two weeks. My aim is to couple the two models.

I'm working with swan4041 model and trying to creat curvilinear Grid(fortran program) . I havent experience with curvilinear Grid, help me!please.

Hi,
I am using REGULAR grid for my work.Don't have any experience with curvilinear grid.I think there are not many people working with SWAN in this forum.Are you aware of a forum for discussion exclusively on SWAN model, which is hosted by Delft university of Technology?

Post your question with all details there and you may get reply from someone.

You can to visit Alex'site, he has matlab tool to creat input files for swan model. I don't know any about matlab. I'm learning about it, If you have matlab code to plot output file of swan, You give it for me, please.

Hello,
Thank you for the link.
I use SURFER for plotting the output of SWAN.It is WINDOWS based software & easy to learn & use.
I will look into the matlab tool in the Alex'site & try to write some code for plotting.But since I am not proficient in MATLAB, it may take time.If I am able to do it, I will for sure post it here.
Actually GMT is the best tool to plot SWAN results. But I can't help you in giving a code in that also, as I don't have a ready made one.
Probably you will get something on this from the archived letters in the SWAN forum in the link given by me.

Dear Sir!

I running swan with output file ( CBO) from wam model, When I run swan model, the program show error:
Warning: no grid points on interval from 100.0000 5.0000 to 100.2500 5.0000

I don'n undertand this errors, can you help me,please.

Hello Tuan,
I feel that the problem is because the grid points of SWAN and WAM do not coincide. When you couple WAM and SWAN, there are 2 restrictions.
1) The grid resolution(spatial) of WAM should be at the most 3*(SWAN resolution)
2) The grid points of SWAN should lie on the grid points of WAM
Please refer the manual for more details.
You may chech carefully whether your grids of WAM and SWAN satisfy these conditions.
Why don't you post it in the SWAN forum and get more replies? I don't think there are many who work with these models in this forum.
regards,
Sandhya.

Hi all

I have installed and run "SWAN model" on "Persian Gulf and Oman Sea" operationally for the first time in Iran. This is a model for near shore region.

Hello fellows,

I have been installing (and running successfully) the SWAN software on my laptop. I might need some help in the near future.
We could share our problems/solutions.

Hello everybody.

I just began working with SWAN, looks pretty....complicated.
Could anybody suggest me some very basic exercises to begin.
What (and how?) to do.
Where could I get some bathymetry data?
What do you think it would be the easiest run to test my capabilities and gain confidence?

Thanks
Marco

Dear all

I am presently working with SWAN new version. Any body can clear me, whether for installing SWAN, is FORTRAN 90 compiler must or any other versions i.e., Visual fortran.
can be used??

regards
Arun

[S.V.V.ARUN KUMAR]

Dear Sir

I am also trying to work with SWAN for our coast. For that I have downloaded the SWAN 4072 version from the home page. There I need to run some programs in FORTRAN 90 compiler but I have Visual fortran in my lab. Because it is the higher version ( .f or .for extension), I am not able to compile the programs (.f90) in that language.
Kindly suggest me help in this regards

I suggest that you would rather run SWAN on linux OS.
It is pretty compatibel with linux and compiler PGF90.
I installed and run SWAN 40.72 version.
I hope you be successful.
