A Spectral Finite-Volume Method for the Shallow Water Equations
A spectral finite-volume (SFV) method is proposed for the numerical solution of the shallow water equations. This is the first phase in the development of a layered (isopycnal) ocean model. Its target applications include, in particular, the simulation of the wind-driven oceanic circulation in geometrically complex basins where layer outcropping and/or isopycnal–bathymetry intersection must be ...
متن کاملA finite element method for solving the shallow water equations on the sphere
Within the framework of ocean general circulation modeling, the present paper describes an efficient way to discretize partial differential equations on curved surfaces by means of the finite element method on triangular meshes. Our approach benefits from the inherent flexibility of the finite element method. The key idea consists in a dialog between a local coordinate system defined for each e...
متن کاملA Moving Mesh Finite Element Method for the Shallow Water Equations
In this dissertation a moving mesh method finite element method is used to approximate moving boundary solutions to the shallow water equations. An Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian method is applied to an existing finite element scheme. Some exact solutions to the shallow water equations in a parabolic basin are shown for comparison. An investigation is conducted into the accuracy of the method. I...
متن کاملError estimates for the standard Galerkin-finite element method for the shallow water equations
We consider a simple initial-boundary-value problem for the shallow water equations in one space dimension, and also the analogous problem for a symmetric variant of the system. Assuming smoothness of solutions, we discretize these problems in space using standard Galerkin-finite element methods and prove L2-error estimates for the semidiscrete problems for quasiuniform and uniform meshes. In p...
متن کاملSpace-time Least-squares Finite-element Method for Shallow-water Equations
In this paper, a space-time least-squares finite-element method for the 2D nonlinear shallow-water equations (SWE) is developed. The method can easily handle complex geometry, bed slope (source term), and radiation boundary condition without any special treatment. Other advantages of the method include: high order approximations in space and time can easily be employed, no upwind scheme is need...
