Just to let people know that  I confirmed on my own that's how it works. THe culvert feature only models the hydraulic head loss caused by the culvert inlet, but you have to carve the opening in the scatter data.

I don't have access to other Mike licenses so I ended up carving the culvert opening

Hello

I have the following doubt: It looks like if I want to model a culvert through a dyke, using the Mike 21/3 model, I would have to carve  the river bed in the bathymetric data of the embankment (see attached figure).  I think is not possible modelling the culvert without altering the scatter data. This would mean that if I want to model alternatives where I use 2  and 3 culverts, I would have to modify the bathymetry for each case and the resolution of my mesh has to be as low as the width of the culvert .

Am I understanding the process correctly?

Thank you so much for your inputs. They were really helpful. I decided to use the fully spectral formulation as I need to study the combined effect of swell and wind waves.

Thanks again

Hello

I understand that  in Mike21,  the fully spectral formulation the calculations will include processes such as refraction and shoaling, wave growth by the wind, dissipation, etc.. Therefore, I would say that the fully spectral formulation can be used to model nearshore waves. I use this calculations quite often to design armour breakwaters. However, I am not quite sure in which cases is the Directionally decoupled parametric formulation applicable. could someone please help me to understand a bit more this formulation?

Thanks!

I am running the model of a mudflat area where deposition is a big deal. I have a fine resolution mesh, and I am runninig the mud transport extension of Mike 3. I've got my currents calibrated to field measurements but for some reason I am not getting any deposition. I have gone through all Mud Transport input parameters and it doesn't seem that I am inputing any crazy value. The only thing I have to play with to obtain deposition is the bed roughness. Would that be ok? does anyone else have any other suggestion?

Thanks

Hello

Does any one know the reason why the "mesh analysis" option in Mike Zero, may be grayed out?

Thanks
