The two-dimensional shallow-water equations (SWEs) are widely used to approximate flows for a wide range of rapidly (and slowly) varying free-surface flows, such as dam breaks, river flooding, and tidal flows including storm surge and wave overtopping causing inundation in estuaries and coastal regions. Grid-based solvers are now widely available. Although accurate and robust wetting and drying routines have been developed, grid-based solvers are limited in simulating multi-phase effects, most importantly flows with rapid distortion in flood modelling.

Here, the SPHysics numerical scheme, originally developed to solve Navier-Stokes Equations has been extended to shallow water equations.

Developers: Dr Renato Vacondio, Dr Benedict Rogers, Prof. Peter Stansby, Prof. Paolo Mignosa

Key code features:

Inlet-Outlet open boundaries
Modified Virtual Boundary Particle (MVBP) to represent solid boundaries
Particle splitting to provide finer resolution
