Summary
Understanding the influence of the interaction between wave distribution, hydrodynamics
and sediment transport is crucial for the placement of off-shore energy generating
platforms. The TELEMAC suite is used for this purpose. The wave propagation
module (TOMAWAC) is first tested at scale, before the performance of the triple coupling
between TOMAWAC, TELEMAC3D for hydrodynamics and SISYPHE for sediment
transport is investigated for several mesh sizes, the largest grid having over 10
million elements. The coupling is internal and has been tested up to 3,072 processors
of a Cray XC30 and 8,192 processors of an IBM Blue Gene/Q. Good performance is
generally observed.
