ANUGA is a software implementation of a hydrodynamic model which is specifically designed to model wetting and drying processes. ANUGA is a joint development project between Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Australian National University (ANU). Free download
This program solves the long wave, shallow water, non-linear equations of fluid flow using finite-difference equations. The long wave theory
applies when the depth relative to the wave length is small, and when the vertical component of the motion does not influence the pressure distribution which is assumed to be hydrostatic. Free download.
The coded program SURGE II is intended for use in the numerical simulation of storm surges or astronomical tides in bays and estuaries. It requires specified time sequences of water level at the seaward boundary of the bay or estuary and specified wind stress and other storm data over the bay or estuary. Free download.
PROGRAM TO CALCULATE LONGSHORE CURRENT FROM WIS DATA
Version 1.0 Approximates 2-d spectra of sea and swell
from input of sea wave height, peak period and mean
direction and swell wave height, peak period, and mean
direction. Free download
A hybrid element model for calculating linear wave oscillation in and near coastal harbors. The model includes bottom friction and boundary absorption. The bottom friction is assumed to be proportional to flow velocity with a phase difference. The boundary absorption adopts a formulation similar to the impedance conditions in acoustics, and it is expressed in terms of wave number and reflection coefficient of the boundary. In the model the entire domain is divided into the near and far regions by an artificially semicircular boundary. Free download.
Parallel Ocean Program (POP) is an ocean circulation model derived from earlier models of Bryan, Cox, Semtner and Chervin in which depth is used as the vertical coordinate. The model solves the three-dimensional primitive equations for fluid motions on the sphere under hydrostatic and Boussinesq approximations. Free down load and user's guide
FVCOM is a prognostic, unstructured-grid, finite-volume, free-surface, 3-D primitive equation coastal ocean circulation model developed by UMASSD-WHOI joint efforts. Free and Open Source, Proprietary and Free to Use, Proprietary with License Fee
