Abstract: An integral equation method is developed to calculate wave propagation and runup in a two‐dimensional wave channel. First, the problem is formulated as a potential flow with nonlinear free‐surface boundary conditions. The ...

Abstract: Although many numerical techniques such as approximate Riemann solvers can be used to analyze subcritical and supercritical flows modeled by hyperbolic-type shallow-water equations, there are some difficulties in practical ...

Abstract: A numerical model describing two-dimensional fluid motions has been developed on an unstructured grid system. By using a fractional step method, a two-dimensional problem governed by the two-dimensional shallow-water ...

Abstract: The Cartesian cut-cell method can be used to represent irregular and complex computational domains with less computational efforts by cutting the grid cells on the boundary surfaces in a background uniform Cartesian mesh. ...

Abstract: This study proposes a method to alter secondary flow pattern in a rotating annulus flume and obtain a resulting uniform bottom shear stress distribution along the radial direction by changing the shape of the channel cross ...
