This method is used for solving the 2D shallow waterequations on arbitrary quadrilateral meshes, based upon a second-order hybrid TVD scheme with anoptimum-selected limiter in the space discretization and a two-step Runge-Kutta approach in the timediscretization. Verification for a circular dam-break problem is carried out by comparing thepresent results with others and very good agreement is shown. The present algorithm is then used topredict dam-break flow characteristics in open channels such as in furcated channels. Morecomplicated unsteady flow characteristics in these furcated channels than in the regular channelsstudied previously can observed in this work.展开更多

The hydro-dynamic flows are computed using the DELFT3D whichserves as the base of computation of sediment transport and bottom deformation. A model of finesediment transport is developed and implemented in an orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system bythe finite difference method. Using the observed water depth of the North Channel of Yangtze estuaryfrom 2001 to 2002, the model is calibrated and validated to determine the parameters in thesediment model. The computational results of the changes of the bed in the North Channel induced bythe spur dikes coincide with the measured data except the area near the structures.展开更多
