DAMBRK Analysis Model

I have recently install DAMBRK on my computer at work and I have a few questions:

1. On the Project Description screen, I do not have the option to choose an Analysis Model as state in the manual.
2. Every time I run an example and try to veiw results from it my system crashes.

Do you have a step by step guide of an example so I can try to run it again.

Dear Justin :

Note that the 1984 DAMBRK Analysis Model was dropped in BOSS DAMBRK version 3.0. The 1988 DAMBRK Analysis Model is more powerful and stable that the 1984 version. We have not yet updated the User Manual to remove this reference.

Note that Example Problem P04.DBK (Teton dam break failure) should operate without any problems. Go to Input Data, Data Transfer Control, Generate DTF and Execute Analysis and it should then run. Please try this to see if this example problem operates on your computer. If it does not operate, you should attempt to use the software on another computer, or perhaps try to run it on a "clean" computer -- that is, one without a virus checker, etc.

If you have any additional questions or need any further information, please contact me again.

Sincerely,

Chris E. Maeder, M.S.
