شبیه‌سازی عددی دو بعدی معادلات انتقال رسوب با استفاده از روش بدون شبکه گالرکین

In this research, the element free Galerkin is implemented to simulate the bed-load sediment transport equations in two dimensions. In this method, which is a meshless method, the computational domain is discretized by a set of arbitrarily scattered nodes and there is no need to use meshes, elements or any other connectivity information in nodes. The hydrodynamical part of sediment transport equations is modeled using 2D shallow water equations; and the Exner equation describes the sediment continuity. Eventually, to appraise the ability of considered method, several benchmark examples are solved and then, the obtained results are compared with previously published works
