     554\subsection{Flume tank validation before and after breaking waves}
     555
     556To explicitly determine if ANUGA can model waves after breaking
     557several experiments were conducted at the Monash University Institute for
     558Sustainable Water Resources using a wave flume.  The experiment was
     559designed to produce a variety of breaking waves.  The experiment was
     560conducted on a 2.5$^\circ$ and a 1.5$^\circ$ plane beach slope set-up
     561in a glass-sided wave flume of 40m in length, 1.0m wide and 1.6m deep.
     562The wave generator can generate waves up to 0.6m in height, with a
     563period range of 0.3 - 7.0 seconds.
     564
     565Four tests with different combinations of wave height and wave period
     566were used. Two repititions were of each test were made.
     567
     568A variety of measurements were taken during the simulation.  The wave
     569height at breaking, when present, were measured using a video
     570recorder. Mid-depth water velocity and wave height were measured on
     571the approach section.  The water height at several points along the
     572flume were measured using pressure transducers.
     573
     574Details of the tests performed are given in Table \ref{tab:hinwood
     575test summary}.
