An extra porosity source term appears in the momentum equation. The numerical model of the shallow water equations with porosity is presented with the finite volume method on unstructured grids and the modified Roe-type approximate Riemann solver. The source terms of the bed slope and porosity are both decomposed in the characteristic direction so that the numerical scheme can exactly satisfy the conservative property. The present model was tested with a dam break with discontinuous porosity and a flash flood in the Toce River Valley. The results show that the model can simulate the influence of obstructions, and the numerical scheme can maintain the flux balance at the interface with high efficiency and resolution.展开更多

A constant source term has been introduced to demonstrate the inflow and outflow. The classical Lighthill Whitham and Richards (LWR) model combined with the Greenshields model is used to obtain analytical and numerical solutions. The model is treated as an IBVP and numerical solutions are presented using Lax Friedrichs scheme. Godunov method is also used to present shock wave analysis. The numerical procedures adopted in this investigation yield results which are very much consistent with real life scenario in terms of traffic density and velocity.展开更多

The goal is the estimation of the dissipated heat flux in the liquid zone (reconstruction of a source term in the energy equation) from experimentally measured temperatures in the solid zone. This work has an application in the electron beam welding of steels of thickness about 8cm. The direct thermometallurgical problem is treated in a quasi steady two-dimensional longitudinal section (x, y). The beam displacement is normally in the y direction. But in the quasi steady simulation, the beam is steady in the study section. The sample is divided in the axial direction z in few sections. At each section, a source term is defined with a part of the beam and creates a vaporized zone and a fused zone. The goal of this work is the rebuilding of the complete source term with the estimations at each section. In this paper, we analyze the feasibility of the estimation. For this work, we use only the simulated measurements without noise.展开更多
