Coupling 1D-2D River Models

Module overview

Combine your new and existing 1D and 2D river models to accurately represent flow exchange between the 1D and 2D systems within the ICM network model.

After completing you'll be able to:

• Implement point coupling and linear coupling as methods for combining 1D and 2D river models.
• Create bank lines, build bank connections, and create inline banks, then connect them to the 2D model.
