Modelling of FloodWave Propagation with Wet-dry Front by One-dimensional Diffusive Wave Equation
PublicationA full dynamic model in the form of the shallow water equations (SWE) is often useful for reproducing the unsteady flow in open channels, as well as over a floodplain. However, most of the numerical algorithms applied to the solution of the SWE fail when flood wave propagation over an initially dry area is simulated.
