PROPERTIES OF ONE DIMENSIONAL OPEN-CHANNEL STEADY FLOW EQUATIONS
PublicationIn this paper properties of discrete forms of one dimensional steady gradually varied flow equations are discussed. Such forms of flow equations are obtained as a result of approximation of their differential forms, which is required to solve them numerically. For such purpose explicit or implicit numerical approximation schemes for ordinary differential equations can be applied. It turns out that dependently on the chosen approximation...
