Abstract:
Numerical simulation nowadays has become an effective tool to obtain
quantitative information of flow field (velocity, pressure, etc) in real life fluid
dynamics applications. Simulation of free surfaces is an essential task in a wide
variety of circumstances such as the description of dam break waves, tidal flows,
weather predictions and flows around structures. In many such applications, the
domain of interest is characterized by different geometric scales. In such
situations, the shallow water models are highly applicable.
