International audienceA non-negativity preserving and well-balanced scheme that exactly preserves all the smooth steady states of the shallow water system, including the moving ones, is proposed. In addition, the scheme must deal with vanishing water heights and transitions between wet and dry areas. A Godunov-type method is derived by using a relevant average of the source terms within the scheme, in order to enforce the required well-balance property. A second-order well-balanced MUSCL extension is also designed. Numerical experiments are carried out to check the properties of the scheme and assess the ability to exactly preserve all the steady states
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
