Example 2
- A program to plot a natural river cross-section
This application may be useful for determining area and wetted perimeters of
natural river cross-sections. Typically, a natural river cross section is surveyed
and a series of points, representing coordinates x and y with respect to an
arbitrary set of coordinates axes. These points can be plotted and a sketch of
the cross section produced for a given water surface elevation. The figure
below illustrate the terms presented in this paragraph.
The program, available in the diskette or CD ROM that comes with your
calculator, utilizes four sub-programs FRAME, DXBED, GTIFS, and INTRP. The
main program, called XSECT, takes as input a matrix of values of x and y, and
the elevation of the water surface Y (see figure above), in that order. The
program produces a graph of the cross section indicating the input data with
points in the graph, and shows the free surface in the cross-section.
