TRIM2D
Cooperative effort of USGS & SPAWAR, 1996
PC and UNIX
TRIM2D is a 2-dimensional, depth-averaged, finite-difference
hydrodynamic model for simulating inland water flows governed by tidal, wind
and riverine inputs. The model uses a high resolution uniform grid to solve
the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the method is computationally
very stable. Simulation output includes water currents, water surface elevation,
salinity profiles, and the distribution of any released contaminants.
Enhancements to the USGS model have been made by SPAWAR and
include the addition of fuel/oil spill simulations, sediment transport, and
outfall dilution. SPAWAR has also developed extensive pre- and post processing
visualization routines. Post processing capabilities include both single view
and animation of the simulation results.
Here are some sample outputs from this model (animations open
in a separate window):
Total load from both Navy and private boats. Click here or
on the image for a time-series animation of the model output. A much larger
(2.4MB) and higher quality version is available here .
Total load from private boats only. Click here or
on the image for a time-series animation of the model output. A much larger
(2.1MB) and higher quality version is available here.
No load from either Navy or private boats. Click here or
