Chapter 1: Introduction

The Aqwa suite is a set of advanced hydrodynamic analysis programs. This document is the Reference Manual for the Aqwa suite of programs.

The programs in the suite are:

Aqwa-Line

Aqwa-Librium

Aqwa-Fer

Aqwa-Drift

Aqwa-Naut

The Reference Manual defines the input data format for the above programs. Most of the input information is applicable to more than one program. When the information relates to only one program, this is made clear in the text.

The suite of Aqwa programs can be run in a Windows environment using a Hydrodynamic system in Workbench, or from the Windows command line using an input file. In a Linux environment, only the command line capability is available.


Note:  Aqwa is not supported on the SUSE Linux platform.


The manual also contains details of certain topics common to all the programs.
