Preface
Computational modeling has become an integral part of the planning,
design, and assessment of water resources projects in general, and river
hydraulics in particular. Most of the river ows and near coastal zones
belong to a class of ows known as shallow water ow. The governing
equations for such ows are hyperbolic in nature and require special
attention in terms of numerical modeling. The numerical schemes applied
to such ows must be capable of capturing shocks and be able to handle
wet/dry fronts. There is a vast amount of literature available that provides
in-depth reviews of modeling shallow water ows using the nite differ ...
