com1DFA.debrisFunctions

Functions that are used specifically for modeling debris flows (within DebrisFrame).

Functions

addHydrographParticles

add new particles initialized by a hydrograph to particles that are in the flow already

checkHydrograph

check if hydrograph satisfied the following requirements: - hydrograph-timesteps are unique - provided release-thickness is larger than zero - the hydrograph-timesteps are not too close (that the particle density becomes too high)

checkTravelledDistance

not used at the moment (related to timeStepDistance in the configuration file)! check if time steps of hydrograph are not to close that the particle density becomes too high check that particles moved out of hydrograph area before new particles are initialized time between hydrograph time steps first timestep is skipped since this is always ok.

preparehydrographAreaLine

read hydrograph polygon and values

releaseHydrograph

Update particles with "new" particles initialised by a hydrograph.
