MIKE 21 Wave FM – From mesh to model output

​MIKE 21 Wave FM – From mesh to model output

📅

📍

Accurately modelling wave conditions in coastal and offshore environments is essential for harbour design, coastal protection, and marine operations.

However, setting up a defensible phase-averaged wave model means making the right choices at every stage — from mesh resolution to defining structure and coastline properties. Small missteps early on can quietly undermine results downstream.

MIKE 21 Wave FM is a phase-resolving, Boussinesq-type wave model designed for detailed analysis of wave propagation, transformation, and disturbance in ports, harbours, and nearshore areas.

In this 45-minute webinar, including 30 minutes of guided demonstration followed by 15 minutes of live Q&A, DHI will demonstrate the MIKE 21 Wave FM workflow using a practical case study. 

 

Topics covered:

  • Mesh generation strategies

  • Wave generation at open boundaries

  • Treatment of wave absorption along sponge layers

  • Representation of reflection at structures and coastlines

  • Model outputs: what to extract and how to interpret them

 

By the end of the webinar, you will: 

  • Learn how to build a fit-for-purpose unstructured mesh for MIKE 21 Wave FM

  • Understand how to configure wave generation, absorption and reflection 

  • Gain practical guidance on selecting and interpreting model outputs

  • Get answers to your own modelling questions in the live Q&A
