Brian O. Blanton and Richard A. Luettich. North Carolina Coastal Flood Analysis System Model Grid Generation. Technical Report TR-08-05, RENCI, North Carolina, September 2008.
The simulation system for the North Carolina floodplain-mapping project uses a suite of state-of-the-art numerical wind, wave, and surge models to compute stillwater and wave setup elevations along the North Carolina coast. Bathymetric and topographic representations in the ADCIRC and SWAN models are derived from the Digital Elevation Model developed as part of the project. This report describes the computational model grids, and in particular details the methods used to generate the unstructured finite-element ADCIRC grid. This report is Section 4 of Submittal Number One, which the State of North Carolina, Division of Emergency Management has tendered for review to the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
