The basic of the program is the Surface line.
The user has to create user have to add a surface line from waterside, channelside with ascending x-value from channel side of the embankment to till the Dike dike top at the polder side.
The riverside has to be on the left as shown in the figure below.
The original surface line as used in DAM or Ringtoets (WTI) contains a whole set of characteristics points. Flow Slide needs a subset.
Please enter your Surface line by using points B, C, D, G and J
The following 5 characteristics pointpoints are obligated in the right order!!!D-FlowSlide with increasing x-value.
- Bottom river channel (B)
- Insert river channel (C)
- Dike toe at river (D)
- Dike top at river (G)
- Dike top at polder (J)
Input screen for the coordinates L and Z and the characteristic points
The description of these parameters can be found on the page Input parameters.
You may, of course add additional points to describe the real surface line.
By clicking on the table header L(enght) of Z(height level), you can only filter the points, but not order them.
