Template:Overlay attribute

Array

This attribute can be defined as values over time, using an array of values defining interpolation-time. This allows users to more dynamically define the height used in the Breach flow formula.

Example

A levee with a datum height of 4 m is breached after 1800 seconds. It lowers down to -4.15 m in 900 seconds.

This can be simulated with the following array: 0 4 1800 4 2700 -4.15

The height value (h) used is:

  • h = 4 between 0 and 1800 seconds;
  • h = linearly interpolated between 4 and -4.15 based on time t within 1800 and 2700 seconds;
  • h = -4,15 m after 2700 seconds.

Notes

  • The initial surface height at the breach (both active and inactive) cells are lowered to the lowest value of the defined breach height array.
  • The breach height as an array can also be used to stop a breach from flowing in water after x amount of seconds. However, as mentioned in the note above, it cannot be used to raise the actual surface height in the simulated area.
