Abstract: Dam-break problems involve the formation of shocks and rarefaction fans. The performance of 20 explicit numerical schemes used to solve the shallow water wave equations for simulating the dam-break problem is examined. ...

Abstract: A new point estimate method (PEM) suitable for estimating the statistical moments of the response of water resources models is illustrated. The importance of using the correct approach for modeling spatial variability in ...

Abstract: Analytical solutions are provided for the one-dimensional transport of a pollutant in an open channel with steady unpolluted lateral inflow uniformly distributed over its whole length. This practical problem can be described ...

Abstract: The deformation, using linear poroelasticity, of a two-dimensional box of porous material due to fluid flow from a line source is considered as a model of certain filtration processes. Analytical ...
