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