Version 2.1.x

(December 2010)

Bugfix Release v2.1.1

General:

Bug fixes:

  • correction of boundary condition sedimentIOUp in 1D
  • correction in cross section interpolation for regular distances in 1D
  • correction for friction attrubution for bottom within user interface in 1D
  • some corrections of help texts

Minor Release v2.1

General:

New Features:

  • Controller extended for external sources
  • Support of jpeg output of BASEviz visualization (experimental)

Subsystem BASEparse:

  • Input Tags for new features

Subsystem BASEchain:

New Features:

  • A simple consideration of internal levees
  • Time dependent grain mixtures as new upper boundary for bed load
  • Multiple soils in one cross section are possible again, a factor is available to define from which degree of submersion a soil is considered to be wetted and will be moved
  • Definition of bed bottom is needed again for bed load transport

Bug fixes:

  • Transport diagram
  • Monitoring point integration for simulations starting after time 0
  • No more elimination of elevations smaller than h_dry in hydraulic balance
  • Initialization of initial_time_step

Subsystem BASEplane

New Features:

  • New upwind method for suspended transport
  • New binary restart file format (CGNS) contains all restart data and enables restart from different solution times (hydraulics, bed load and suspension)
  • Reduced mesh dependence in many situations due to changed formulation of Riemann problem on edges
  • Initial depth is set to zero over the domain (and no longer to depth_min)
  • Several improvements in data output (depth/wse output are consistent now, sediment balancing improved, added specific discharge, renaming of z_bed to z_element and zcoord to z_node
  • Some speed improvements for parallel execution
  • Improvements and Parallelization of gravitational transport

Bug fixes:

  • Bugfix for inner gate because unphysical flux could be generated in dry elements
  • Sediment transport rate was determined too small in some cases
  • 2dm Mesh Input: Internal edges of last nodes of the mesh could be falsely treated as boundary edges
  • Tecplot output was restricted to 6 digits, now changed to 8 digits
  • Bugfix in layer interpolation on sediment elements

System Manuals

  • New manual for the graphical user interface (GUI)
  • New sediment tutorial for fractional transport for BASEplane
  • Additions and corrections
