Summary

3: Archive model results for the velocity validation: This item summarizes the workflow to compare FaSTMECH simulations of velocity to measured velocity for a reach of the Middle Channel of the St. Clair River Delta, Michigan. This work is part of a larger model archive (see Model Archive: Simulation of Sediment Transport, Middle Channel of the St. Clair River Delta, Michigan.) that summarizes sediment transport simulations in this reach of river. Hydraulic model for velocity verification. The ability FaSTMECH to simulate 2-dimensional depth-averaged velocity in the reach was tested against ADCP measurements collected on May 4, 2022. The model sensitivity to the lateral eddy viscosity (LEV) was tested. Two values of LEV were [...]
