Examples of wave fields
MIKE 21 BW can model regular as well as irregular waves.
Normal incident irregular waves
Irregular waves can be applied both using internal wave generation and an
open boundary in case of normal incidence, i.e. for waves having an angle of
90 degrees relative to the generation line/open boundary. In both cases a
.dfs0 data file is used as input. An example is shown in Figure 5.19.

input (dfs0), see the MIKE 21 Toolbox tool Random Wave Generation
Oblique incident irregular waves
For oblique incident unidirectional irregular waves, i.e. waves having an angle
different from 90 degrees relative to the generation line, only internal wave
generation is possible. In this case a .dfs1 line series data file is used as
input. An example is shown in Figure 5.20.
