The formulation of the Junction Riemann Problem (JRP) under subsonic conditions in 1D flow is clearly defined and solved by current methods, but they fail when sonic or supersonic conditions appear. Formulations coupling the 1D model for the vessels or pipes with other container-like formulations for junctions have been presented, requiring extra information such as assumed bulk mechanical properties and geometrical properties or the extension to more dimensions. To the best of our knowledge, in this work, the JRP is solved for the first time allowing solutions for all types of transitions and for any number of vessels, without requiring the definition of any extra information. The resulting JRP solver is theoretically well-founded, robust and simple, and returns the evolving state for the conserved variables in all vessels, allowing the use of any numerical method in the resolution of the inner cells used for the space-discretization of the vessels. The methodology of the proposed solver is presented in detail. The JRP solver is directly applicable if energy losses at the junctions are defined. Straightforward extension to other 1D hyperbolic flows can be performed.},DOI = {10.3390/sym13091658}}

Additionally, in order to prevent any kind of pollutant dispersion through the drainage network, it is very interestingto have a certain monitorization or control over the quality of the water that flows in both domains. In this sense, the addition of a pollutant transport component to both surface and sewer hydraulic models would benefit theglobal analysis of the combined water flow. On the other hand, when considering a realistic large domain with complex topography or streets structure, a fine spatial discretization is mandatory. Hence the number of grid cellsis usually very large and, therefore, it is necessary to use parallelization techniques for the calculation, the use of Graphic Processing Units (GPU) being one of the most efficient due to the leveraging of thousands of processorswithin a single device. In this work, an efficient GPU-based 2D shallow water flow solver (RiverFlow2D-GPU) is fully coupled with EPA’s Storm Water Management Model (SWMM). Both models are able to develop a transient water qualityanalysis taking into account several pollutants. The coupled model, referred to as RiverFlow2D-GPU UD (Urban Drainge) is applied to three real-world cases, covering the most common hydraulic situations in urban hydrology/hydraulics.A UK Environmental Agency test case is used as model validation, showing a good agreement between RiverFlow2D-GPU UD and the rest of the numerical models considered. The efficiency of the model is proven in two more complex domains,leading to a >100x faster simulations compared with the traditional CPU computation.},}

An efficient and properly calibrated computational model represents a useful tool to provide insight into the catchment dynamics at hydrological and geomorphological levels. In addition, it allows to develop detailed risk management and conservation plans. In this work, we present a coupled surface-groundwater distributed flow model with hydrological (rainfall and infiltration) and geomorphological (suspended and bed load sediment transport) components. The coupled model is applied to well characterized experimental catchments that are used as realistic test cases. The calibration of the water flow model response to rainfall is performed by means of the fitting to experimental outlet hydrographs of the results supplied by a coupled formulation of 2D Shallow Water Equations and 2D Darcy’s law for saturated porous media connected via suitable infiltration laws. The calibration of a suspended and bed load model is also addressed by means of the fitting to experimental outlet sedigraphs. The numerical results show a good agreement between numerical and observed hydrographs and sedigraphs, significantly improving previous published simulations. Additionally, the need to repeat the simulations in the calibration processes is no longer an unapproachable problem."}

The current computational and numerical technology enables the use of full shallow water equations solvers to be applied for these type of flow problems. Nonetheless, Zero-Inertia (diffusive wave) solvers have been historically favoured due to their conceptual and mathematical simplicity in comparison to shallow water solvers, with the working assumption that the simplifications introduced by Zero-Inertia will have some assumable impact on accuracy but will also allow for computational efficiency. Since both types of solvers have been primarily developed, benchmarked and compared to each other for fluvial and floodplain simulations, it is relevant to assess t-he relative performance for rainfall-runoff problems. In this work, both solvers are applied to a set of six well known test cases with reference solutions. The performance of the solvers is assessed in terms of global signatures such as hydrographs and flooded areas, but also in terms of spatial distributions of depth and velocity, as well as computational cost. Furthermore, the comparisons are performed across different spatial resolutions. The results show that for rainfall-runoff problems explicit, finite volumes solvers for both equations provide a similar accuracy, but the shallow water solver requires less computational time. The Zero-Inertia solver was found to be less sensitive to mesh refining than the full shallow water solver."}

In particular, an explicit first-order finite volume scheme is detailed to control the numerical instabilities that are likely to appear when used in complex topography. The model is first validated with the benchmark test case of the Toce River (Italy) and numerical fixes are demonstrated to be necessary. The model is next applied to reproduce real events in a reach of the Ebro River (Spain) in order to compare simulation results with field data. The second case deals with a large domain (744 km2) and long flood duration (up to 20 days) allowing an analysis of the performance and speed-up achieved by different GPU devices. The high values of fit between observed and simulated results as well as the computational times achieved are encouraging to propose the use of the model as forecasting system."}

There is a wide range of physical situations of environmental interest, such as flow in open channels and rivers, tsunami and flood modelling, that can be mathematically represented by first-order non-linear systems of partial differential equations, whose derivation involves an assumption of the shallow water type. Shallow water models may include more sophisticated terms when applied to cases of not pure water floods, such as mud/debris floods, produced by landslides. Mud/debris floods are unsteady flow phenomena in which the flow changes rapidly, and the properties of the moving fluid mixture include stop and go mechanisms. The present work reports on a numerical model able to solve the 2D shallow water equations even including bed load transport over erodible bed in realistic situations involving transient flow and movable flow boundaries. The novelty is that it offers accurate and stable results in realistic problems since an appropriate discretization of the governing equations is performed. Furthermore, the present work is focused on the importance of the computational cost. Usually, the main drawback is the high computational effort required for obtaining accurate numerical solutions due to the high number of cells involved in realistic cases. However, the proposed model is able to reduce computer times by orders of magnitude making 2D applications competitive and practical for operational flood prediction. Moreover our results show that high performance code development can take advantage of general purpose and inexpensive Graphical Processing Units, allowing to run almost 100 times faster than old generation codes in some cases.",issn="1573-1510",doi="10.1007/s10652-018-09657-7",url="https://doi.org/10.1007/s10652-018-09657-7"}

The mathematical expressions modeling the hydrodynamic and morphodynamic components of the physical phenomenon are treated to deal with cross-section shape variations and empirical solid discharge estimations. The resulting coupled equations can be rewritten as a non-conservative hyperbolic system with three moving waves and one stationary wave to account for the source terms discretization. Moreover, the wave celerities for the coupled morpho-hydrodyamical system depend on the erosion-deposition mechanism selected to update the channel cross-section profile. This influence is incorporated into the system solution by means of a new parameter related to the channel bottom variation celerity. Special interest is put to show that, even for the simplest solid transport models as the Grass law, to find a linearized Jacobian matrix of the system can be a challenge in presence of arbitrary shape channels. In this paper a numerical finite volume scheme is proposed, based on an augmented Roe solver, first order accurate in time and space, dealing with solid transport flux variations caused by the channel geometry changes. Channel cross-section variations lead to the appearance of a new solid flux source term which should be discretized properly. The stability region is controlled by wave celerities together with a proper reconstruction of the approximate local Riemann problem solution, enforcing positive values for the intermediate states of the conserved variables. Comparison of the numerical results for several analytical and experimental cases demonstrates the effectiveness, exact well-balancedness and accuracy of the scheme."}

Such anomalies lead to an incorrect and unstable representation of the discrete shock profile that may eventually ruin the whole solution. The two most widespread anomalies are the slowly-moving shock anomaly and the carbuncle, which are deeply addressed in the literature in the framework of homogeneous problems, such as Euler equations. In this work, the presence of the aforementioned anomalies is studied in the framework of the 1D and 2D SWE and novel solvers that effectively reduce both anomalies, even in cases where source terms dominate the solution, are presented. Such solvers are based on the augmented Roe (ARoe) family of Riemann solvers, which account for the source term as an extra wave in the eigenstructure of the system. The novel method proposed here is based on the ARoe solver in combination with: (a) an improved flux extrapolation method based on a previous work, which circumvents the slowly-moving shock anomaly and (b) a contact wave smearing technique that avoids the carbuncle. The resulting method is able to eliminate the slowly-moving shock anomaly for 1D steady cases with source term. When dealing with 2D cases, the novel method proves to handle complex shock structures composed of hydraulic jumps over irregular bathymetries, avoiding the presence of the aforementioned anomalies."}

This procedure is associated with a large computational time since the time step depends directly on the cell size. The alternative proposed in this work includes the levees as internal boundary conditions in the 2D numerical scheme. In particular, levees have been defined by a weir law that, depending on the relative values of water surface levels on both sides, can formulate the discharge for different situations (i.e. free flow and submerged flow). In addition, having identified numerical difficulties in cases of low discharge under free flow conditions, a novel procedure to avoid oscillations has been developed and called volume transport method.

Maps of WUA infestation stages were produced. A survey of the WUAs made it possible to assess the relevance of certain structural and management practices in the control of zebra mussels. A method to monitor zebra mussel colonization of pressurized collective irrigation networks was presented. The method is based on the combination of pressure measurements at network hydrants and hydraulic simulations. Normalized pressure, estimated as the difference between simulated and observed pressure, should approach zero in all hydrants in a properly characterized, non-infested network. A positive normalized pressure can indicate the presence of zebra mussel colonies. The methodology was validated using two different test cases located in two RAA WUAs: the first case involved a discrete chemical treatment, while the second case was based on the analysis of three years of telemetry pressure data and remote operation of network hydrants. The existence of an infested reservoir upstream of the WUAs was the most likely source of zebra mussel colonization of the WUA pressurized networks in the RAA project.

When dealing with intense storm events, the limited capacity of the drainage network conduits can cause undesirable flooding situations. Computational simulation of the involved processes can lead to better management of the drainage network of urban areas. In particular, it is interesting to simultaneuously calculate the possible pressurization of the pipe network and the surface water dynamics in case of overflow. In this work, the coupling of two models is presented. The surface flow model is based on two-dimensional shallow water equations with which it is possible to solve the overland water dynamics as well as the transformation of rainfall into runoff through different submodels of infiltration. The underground drainage system assumes mostly free surface flow that can be pressurized in specific situations. The pipe network is modeled by means of one-dimensional sections coupled with the surface model in specific regions of the domain, such as drains or sewers. The numerical techniques considered for the resolution of both mathematical models are based on finite volume schemes with a first-order upwind discretization. The coupling of the models is verified using laboratory experimental data. Furthermore, the potential usefulness of the approach is demonstrated using real flooding data in a urban environment.},DOI = {10.3390/geosciences8080288}}

A growing effort to address these complex environmental problems is in place in the scientific community. Researchers have studied and favoured a plethora of techniques to approach this issue, ranging from very simple empirically-based mathematical models, to physically-based, deductive and very formal numerical integration of systems of partial-differential equations. In this work, we review two families of methods: cell-based simulators �later called Cellular Automata �and Finite Volume solvers for the Zero-Inertia equation, which we show to converge into a single methodology given appropriate choices. Furthermore, this convergence, mathematically shown in this work, can also be identified by critically reviewing the existing literature, which leads to the conclusion that two methods originating from different reasoning and fundamental philosophy, fundamentally converge into the same method. Moreover, acknowledging such convergence allows for some generalisation of properties of numerical schemes such as error behaviour and stability, which, importantly, is the same for the converging methodology, a fact with practical implications. Both the review of existing literature and reasoning in this work attempts to aid in the effort of synchronising and cross-fertilizing efforts to improve the understanding and the outlook of Zero-Inertia solvers for surface flows, as well as to help in clarifying the possible confusion and parallel developments that may arise from the use of different terminology originating from historical reasons. Moreover, synchronising and unifying this knowledge-base can help clarify model capabilities, applicability and modelling issues for hydrological modellers, specially for those not deeply familiar with the mathematical and numerical details."}

When supplied with adequate infiltration laws, this model can provide useful information in surface Hydrology. The classical Green-Ampt law is generalized by using a Caputo fractional derivative of order less than or equal to 1 in Darcy's law. The novelty of this combination is that, on the one hand, the distributed SW simulation provides a detailed surface water distribution and, on the other hand, the FOGA model offers the possibility to model infiltration rates not monotonically decreasing. In order to obtain the best results, a non-uniform order of the fractional derivative depending on the cumulative infiltration and the existence of available surface water is proposed for realistic cases.

Nevertheless, other possible applications exist. In particular, bed-load transport phenomena are relevant in urban drainage systems, including sewers. However, few applications of coupled two-dimensional (2D) shallow-water and bed-load transport models can be found, and their transfer from environmental applications—usually river and floodplain—into sewer applications requires some adaptation. Unlike to river systems, where there is a thick layer of sediment that constitutes a movable riverbed, sewer systems have thin layers of sediment that need to be removed, thus exposing a rigid, nonerodible surface. This problem requires careful numerical treatment to avoid generating errors and instability in the simulation. This paper deals with a numerical approach to tackle this issue in an efficient way that allows large-scale studies to be performed and provides empirical evidence that the proposed approach is accurate and applicable for sewage and channel-flushing problems. }}

In the framework of the Shallow Water Equations (SWE), well-balanced \{STD\} based on quiescent equilibrium are unable to converge to physically based solutions, which can be constructed considering energy arguments. Energy based discretizations can be designed assuming dissipation or conservation, but in any case, the \{STD\} procedure required should not be merely based on ad hoc approximations. The \{STD\} proposed in this work is derived from the Generalized Hugoniot Locus obtained from the Generalized Rankine Hugoniot conditions and the Integral Curve across the contact wave associated to the bed step. In any case, the \{STD\} must allow energy-dissipative solutions: steady and unsteady hydraulic jumps, for which some numerical anomalies have been documented in the literature. These anomalies are the incorrect positioning of steady jumps and the presence of a spurious spike of discharge inside the cell containing the jump. The former issue can be addressed by proposing a modification of the energy-conservative \{STD\} that ensures a correct dissipation rate across the hydraulic jump, whereas the latter is of greater complexity and cannot be fixed by simply choosing a suitable STD, as there are more variables involved. The problem concerning the spike of discharge is a well-known problem in the scientific community, also known as slowly-moving shock anomaly, it is produced by a nonlinearity of the Hugoniot locus connecting the states at both sides of the jump. However, it seems that this issue is more a feature than a problem when considering steady solutions of the \{SWE\} containing hydraulic jumps. The presence of the spurious spike in the discharge has been taken for granted and has become a feature of the solution. Even though it does not disturb the rest of the solution in steady cases, when considering transient cases it produces a very undesirable shedding of spurious oscillations downstream that should be circumvented. Based on spike-reducing techniques (originally designed for homogeneous Euler equations) that propose the construction of interpolated fluxes in the untrustworthy regions, we design a novel Roe-type scheme for the \{SWE\} with discontinuous topography that reduces the presence of the aforementioned spurious spike. The resulting spike-reducing method in combination with the proposed \{STD\} ensures an accurate positioning of steady jumps, provides convergence with mesh refinement, which was not possible for previous methods that cannot avoid the spike.

They belong to the category of hyperbolic partial differential equations and their treatment has recently been benefited from many numerical contributions leading to robust, accurate and well-balanced solutions. The correct formulation of external and internal boundary conditions is required to achieve a useful model in practical application. Control of internal boundary conditions may be useful in water distribution facilities. Therefore, development of a control strategy based on the fully dynamical mathematical model becomes attractive and justified. This work is devoted to the implementation of an adjoint based sensitivity analysis for the control of sluice gates in open-channel flow, formulated as internal boundary conditions. This is one of the most complex tasks in multiple regulated water delivery situations. Based on gradient method optimizers, the control of the whole channel to satisfy different requirements at several points of the channel is discussed. One of the achievements in this work is that the whole optimization process is performed two orders of magnitude faster than in real time. Moreover, the numerical results show this promising technique is a feasible way to obtain a robust and efficient control method. }}

The lack of consideration of the variability of the bulking density of the mixture is not admissible when modeling severe types of erosional flow such as the release of a dam break wave over a sedimentary bottom. Such events can lead to significant changes in the wave hydrodynamics, since the inertia of the flow can be larger and consequently its erosion/deposition capacity can be altered. From a numerical point of view a new complex erosion/deposition source term appears. For the integration of these source terms two strategies have been explored in this work: upwind and pointwise. Hence, this work is focused on the development and validation of a novel numerical scheme based on an approximate augmented Riemann solver, where the erosion/deposition rates play an important role in the variation of mixture density. Several analytical test cases have been derived in order to validate the computational tool. The numerical predictions have also been compared against experimental data. }}

When applied to shallow flows, numerical preservation of quiescent equilibrium, also known as the well-balanced property, is still nowadays the keystone for the formulation of novel numerical schemes. But this condition turns completely insufficient when applied to problems of practical interest. Energy balanced methods (E-schemes) can overcome all type of situations in shallow flows, not only under arbitrary geometries, but also with independence of the rheological shear stress model selected. They must be able to handle correctly transient problems including modeling of starting and stopping flow conditions in debris flow and other flows with a non-Newtonian rheological behavior. The numerical solver presented here satisfies these properties and is based on an approximate solution defined in a previous work. Given the relevant capabilities of this weak solution, it is fully theoretically derived here for a general set of equations. This useful step allows providing for the first time an E-scheme, where the set of source terms is fully exercised under any flow condition involving high slopes and arbitrary shear stress. With the proposed solver, a Roe type first order scheme in time and space, positivity conditions are explored under a general framework and numerical simulations can be accurately performed recovering an appropriate selection of the time step, allowed by a detailed analysis of the approximate solver. The use of case-dependent threshold values is unnecessary and exact mass conservation is preserved. "}

Regarding the speed of the computation, the Exner equation slows down the already costly 2D shallow water model as the number of variables to solve is increased and the numerical stability is more restrictive. In order to reduce the computational effort required for simulating realistic scenarios, the authors have exploited the use of Graphics Processing Units in combination with non-trivial optimization procedures. The gain in computing cost obtained with the graphic hardware is compared against single-core (sequential) and multi-core (parallel) CPU implementations in two unsteady cases. }}

This research aims to reproduce the flood event in order to understand and decipher the flood processes and dynamics on a system of prograding alluvial fans. The hydrological model \{TETIS\} was used to characterize the shape and dimension of the October 2007 Girona River hydrograph. Subsequently, the flood event was reproduced using the free surface flow module of the model RiverFlow2D. The combination of hydrological and hydraulic models was evaluated using post-flood surveys defining maximum flooded area and flood depths. Then, simulations with different peak discharges were carried out to estimate the hydro-geomorphologic response of the Girona River floodplain, through the identification of the activation thresholds in different geomorphic elements. Results showed that the unit peak discharge of the October 2007 flood event (5 m3 s� km�) was among the largest ever recorded in the area, according to the existing literature. Likewise, the hydraulic model showed a good performance in reproducing the flood event (FitA = 76\%, \{RMSE\} = 0.65 m and \{NSE\} = 0.6), despite the complexity of the case, an ephemeral and ungauged river. The model simulation revealed the existence of an activation pattern of paleochannels and alluvial fans, which was altered by the presence of some anthropogenic disturbances. This multidisciplinary approach proved to be a useful strategy for understanding flash flood processes in ungauged catchments. It allowed understanding the mechanisms governing floods in alluvial fans systems and it represented a solid contribution for early warning plans and risk mitigation policies. "}

In this paper, a distributed and physically based model (2D Shallow Water Equations) is used for surface flow and runoff calculations in combination with two infiltration laws (Horton and Green–Ampt) for estimating infiltration in a watershed. This technique offers the capability of assigning a local and time-dependent infiltration rate to each computational cell depending on the available surface water, soil type or vegetation. We investigate how the calibration of parameters is affected by transient distributed Shallow Water model and the complexity of the problem. In the first part of this work, we calibrate the infiltration parameters for both Horton and Green–Ampt models under flat ponded soil conditions. Then, by means of synthetic test cases, we perform a space-distributed sensitivity analysis in order to show that this calibration can be significantly affected by the introduction of topography or rainfall. In the second part, parameter calibration for a real catchment is addressed by comparing the numerical simulations with two different sets of experimental data, corresponding to very different events in terms of the rainfall volume. We show that the initial conditions of the catchment and the rainfall pattern have a special relevance in the quality of the adjustment. Hence, it is shown that the topography of the catchment and the storm characteristics affect the calibration of infiltration parameters. "}

Moreover, a simplified version of the solver, referred to as Linearized-Flux-Source (LFS) solver, is presented. This novel version of the \{FS\} solver allows to compute the solution without requiring reconstruction of derivatives of the fluxes, nevertheless some drawbacks are evidenced. In contrast to other previously defined Derivative Riemann solvers, the proposed \{FS\} and \{LFS\} solvers take into account the presence of the source term in the resolution of the Derivative Riemann Problem (DRP), which is of particular interest when dealing with geometric source terms. When applied to the shallow water equations, the proposed HLLS-ADER and AR-ADER schemes can be constructed to fulfill the exactly well-balanced property, showing that an arbitrary quadrature of the integral of the source inside the cell does not ensure energy balanced solutions. As a result of this work, energy balanced flux-ADER schemes that provide the exact solution for steady cases and that converge to the exact solution with arbitrary order for transient cases are constructed.

In this paper, these equations are combined with the two-dimensional shallow water equations to describe the flow field. The resulting system of equations can be solved in two ways: (i) in a coupled way, solving flow and sediment equations simultaneously at a given time-step or (ii) in an uncoupled manner by first solving the flow field and using the magnitudes obtained at each time-step to update the channel morphology (bed and surface composition). The coupled strategy is preferable when dealing with strong and quick interactions between the flow field, the bed evolution and the different particle sizes present on the bed surface. A number of numerical difficulties arise from solving the fully coupled system of equations. These problems are reduced by means of a weakly-coupled strategy to numerically estimate the wave celerities containing the information of the bed and the grain sizes present on the bed. Hence, a two-dimensional numerical scheme able to simulate in a self-stable way the unsteady morphological evolution of channels formed by cohesionless grain size mixtures is presented. The coupling technique is simplified without decreasing the number of waves involved in the numerical scheme but by simplifying their definitions. The numerical results are satisfactorily tested with synthetic cases and against experimental data. "}

The topography representation is described via cross sections for the 1D model and with quadrilateral/triangular structured/unstructured meshes for the 2D model. The coupling strategies, free of hydraulic structures and tuning parameters, are firstly validated in a laboratory test dealing with a levee break and its flooding into a lateral plane. The numerical results are compared with a fully 2D model as well as with measurements in some gauge points giving satisfactory results. The simulation of a real flooding scenario in the Tiber river near the urban area of Rome (Italy) is then performed. A lateral coupling configuration is provided, in which the flood wave propagation in the main channel is simulated by means of a 1D model and the inundation of the riverside is simulated by means of a 2D model. On the other hand, a frontal coupling, in which the flood wave is simulated in a 1D model first and then it is propagated into a 2D model, is also performed. The flooding extension is almost well captured by all the schemes presented, being the 1D�D lateral configuration the most confident with speed-ups of around 15x. "}

The type of source terms considered here are a special but relevant type of source terms: their spatial integral is discontinuous. The relevant difference with other previously defined \{ADER\} schemes is that it considers the presence of the source term in the solutions of the DRP. Unlike the original \{ADER\} schemes, the proposed numerical scheme computes the \{RPs\} of the high order terms of the \{DRP\} departing from time derivatives of the fluxes as initial conditions for these RPs. Weak solutions of the \{RPs\} defined for the \{DRP\} are computed using an augmented version of the Roe solver that includes an extra wave that accounts for the contribution of the source term. The discretization done over the source term leads to an energy balanced numerical scheme that allows to obtain the exact solution for steady cases with independence of the grid refinement. In unsteady problems, the numerical scheme ensures the convergence to the exact solution. The numerical scheme is constructed with an arbitrary order of accuracy, and has no theoretical barrier. Numerical results for the Burger's equation and the shallow water equations are presented in this work and indicate that the proposed numerical scheme is able to converge with the expected order of accuracy.

During the last decade, attention has been focused on the fluxes of suspended sediment and particulate P through freshwater drainage systems because of severe eutrophication effects in aquatic ecosystems. Hence, the analysis and prediction of phosphorus and sediment dynamics constitute an important element for ecological conservation and restoration of freshwater ecosystems. In that sense, the development of a suitable prediction model is justified, and the present work is devoted to the validation and application of a predictive soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) uptake and sedimentation models, to a real riparian system of the middle Ebro river floodplain. Both models are coupled to a fully distributed two-dimensional shallow-water flow numerical model. The SRP uptake model is validated using data from three field experiments. The model predictions show a good accuracy for SRP concentration, where the linear regressions between measured and calculated values of the three experiments were significant (r2 ≥�.62; p ≤�.05), and a Nash–Sutcliffe coefficient (E) that ranged from 0.54 to 0.62. The sedimentation model is validated using field data collected during two real flooding events within the same river reach. The comparison between calculated and measured sediment depositions showed a significant linear regression (p ≤�.05; r2��.97) and an E that ranged from 0.63 to 0.78. Subsequently, the complete model that includes flow dynamics, solute transport, SRP uptake and sedimentation is used to simulate and analyse floodplain sediment deposition, river nutrient contribution and SRP uptake. According to this analysis, the main SRP uptake process appears to be the sediment sorption. The analysis also reveals the presence of a lateral gradient of hydrological connectivity that decreases with distance from the river and controls the river matter contribution to the floodplain.

This work presents an experimental study of granular flow over a simplified mountain slope and valley topography. The experimental facility has a rough bed with very high slope at the upstream end and adverse slope on the downstream end, following a parabolic profile. Obstacles are present in the lower regions. Transient measurements of the moving granular surfaces were taken with a consumer-grade RGB-D sensor, providing transient 2{D} elevation fields around the obstacles. Three experimental configurations were tested, with semispheres of different diameters and a square dike obstacle. The experimental results are very consistent and repeatable. The quantitative, transient and two-dimensional data for all three experiments constitute excellent benchmarking tests for computational models, such as the one presented in a companion paper. "}

Three situations are considered with some common properties: a two-dimensional configuration, variable slope of the topography and the presence of obstacles. The setup and measurement technique employed during the development of these experiments are deeply explained in the companion work. The first experiment is based on a single obstacle, the second one is performed against multiple obstacles and the third one studies the influence of a dike on which overtopping occurs. Due to the impact of the flow against the obstacles, fast moving shocks appear, and a variety of secondary waves emerge. In order to delve into the physics of these types of phenomena, a shock-capturing numerical scheme is used to simulate the cases.

This coupling can be done if using a suitable Jacobian matrix. As a result, faithful numerical predictions are available for a wide range of flow conditions and empirical bed load discharge formulations, allowing to investigate the best option in each case study, which is mandatory in these type of environmental problems. When coupling the equations, the \{SWE\} are considered but including an extra conservation law for the sediment dynamics. In this way the computational cost may become unrealistic in situations where the application of the \{SWE\} over rigid bed can be used involving large time and space scales without giving up to the adequate level of mesh refinement. Therefore, for restoring the numerical efficiency, the coupling technique is simplified, not decreasing the number of waves involved in the Riemann problem but simplifying their definitions. The effects of the approximations made are tested against experimental data which include transient problems over erodible bed. The simplified model is formulated under a general framework able to insert any desirable discharge solid load formula. "}

The numerical scheme is based on an augmented Roe solver that involves the presence of source terms by adding an extra stationary wave. The characteristics of the numerical scheme include the energy balanced property, and being only first order accurate in time and space, leads to exact numerical solutions for steady solutions with independence of the grid refinement in channels with general geometries.

The main drawback of the approach is the time step size limit imposed by the Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy numerical stability constraint. This leads to excessively long computational times in large scale cases of practical interest. At the same time, the accuracy of the numerical results is associated to the use of fine computational meshes able to achieve enough spatial resolution. Taking into account that hydraulic modelers do not have access, in general, to large computational facilities, suitable and useful parallelization techniques are required. Furthermore, if high performance computing facilities are used, it is usually necessary to provide an estimation of the requirements of computational load to cover the length of the simulation.

The flow is modeled using the two-dimensional shallow water equations and the gates are formulated as internal boundary conditions to provide a simulation tool for water flood management. When open channel flow in a river passes through a gate, the shallow water equations are no longer valid and energy conservation laws are required. The change in the set of equations is avoided by modeling gates as a spatial discontinuity or internal boundary condition, providing an alternative algorithm to the one used in the rest of the flooded computational domain. In the first part of this work, the requirements of an adequate discretization for gate modeling are provided in the context of a finite volume numerical scheme able to handle all kind of flow regimes over complex bed topography. In the second part of this work, the formulation of the internal boundary conditions is verified by means of a test case with exact solution. A benchmark test case is then proposed as a synthetic river reach with lateral storage areas controlled by gates. Dimensional analysis is used to establish the regulation parameters influencing the attenuation of the outlet peak discharge. It is also shown that the peak outflow discharge can be reduced by coupling the present simulator with a proportional-integral-derivative regulation algorithm. Finally, a river reach of the Ebro River is simulated with a real flooding scenario.},}

Considering the fact that well-proven capacity formulae are based on one-dimensional (1D) experimental steady flows, the assessment of these empirical relations under unsteady 1D and 2D situations is important. In order to ensure the reliability of the numerical experimentation, the formulation has to be general enough to allow the use of different empirical laws. Moreover, the numerical scheme must handle correctly the coupling between the 2D shallow-water equations and the Exner equation under any condition. In this work, a finite-volume numerical scheme that includes these two main features will be exploited here in 1D and 2D laboratory test cases.

In this paper, a distributed,physically-based numerical model is used for runoff simulation in amountain catchment. This approach offers two advantages. The first isthat by using shallow-water equations for runoff flow, there is lessfreedom to calibrate routing parameters (as compared to, for example,synthetic hydrograph methods). The second, is that spatial distributionsof water depth and velocity can be obtained. Furthermore, interactionsamong the various hydrological processes can be modeled in aphysically-based approach which may depend on transient and spatiallydistributed factors. On the other hand, the undertaken numericalapproach relies on accurate terrain representation and mesh selection,which also affects significantly the computational cost of thesimulations. Hence, we investigate the response of a gauged catchmentwith this distributed approach. The methodology consists of analyzingthe effects that the mesh has on the simulations by using a range ofmeshes. Next, friction is applied to the model and the response tovariations and interaction with the mesh is studied. Finally, a firstapproach with the well-known SCS Curve Number method is studied toevaluate its behavior when coupled with a shallow-water model for runoffflow. The results show that mesh selection is of great importance, sinceit may affect the results in a magnitude as large as physical factors,such as friction. Furthermore, results proved to be less sensitive toroughness spatial distribution than to mesh properties. Finally, theresults indicate that SCS-CN may not be suitable for simulatinghydrological processes together with a shallow-water model. (C) 2012Elsevier B.V.

The hydraulic modelused is based on the 2D transient shallow-water equations on theirregular bed that are able to compute flow advance over a dry bed. Thisstudy involves the reliable simulation of not only the flood waveadvance but also the drying process in a series of events of differentmagnitude. The importance of the correct characterization of theroughness coefficient and the topography is emphasized in the study. Theformer is estimated from a previous classification of structurallyhomogeneous habitats, and the latter is defined by merging the digitalterrain model data with a hydraulic river bed elevation reconstructionalgorithm. The calibration of the full model resulting from theroughness, bed river, and flow simulation models is based on fieldmeasurements of the flooded area for two steady discharges. Thevalidation is performed by comparing the numerical results with thewater levels measured during five flood events at certain times, withthe flooded area and time series of continuous point measurements ofwater depth during different situations throughout the year.

These weak solutions use propagating jump discontinuities connecting the m + 1 states to approximate the Riemann solution. The average of the propagated waves in the computational cell leads to a reinterpretation of the Roe's approach and in the upwind treatment of the source term of Vazquez-Cendon. It is derived that the numerical scheme can not be formulated evaluating the physical flux function at the position of the initial discontinuities, as usually done in the homogeneous case. Positivity requirements over the values of the intermediate states are the only way to control the global stability of the method. Also it is shown that the definition of well-balanced equilibrium in trivial cases is not sufficient to provide correct results: it is necessary to provide discrete evaluations of the source term that ensure energy dissipating solutions when demanded. The one and two dimensional shallow water equations with source terms due to the bottom topography and friction are presented as case study. The stability region is shown to differ from the one defined for the case without source terms, and it can be derived that the appearance of negative values of the thickness of the water layer in the proximity of the wet/dry front is a particular case, of the wet/wet fronts. The consequence is a severe reduction in the magnitude of the allowable time step size if compared with the one obtained for the homogeneous case. Starting from this result, 1D and 2D numerical schemes are developed for both quadrilateral and triangular grids, enforcing conservation and positivity over the solution, allowing computationally efficient simulations by means of a reconstruction technique for the inner states of the weak solution that allows a recovery of the time step size.},keywords = {Weak solutions; Well-balanced approach; Roe methods; Energy dissipating solutions; Stability region; Wet/dry front; Shallow water systems}}

The presence of relatively large friction terms reduces considerably the stability region of the explicit schemes (with either separate or unified discretization). Implicit formulations strongly help to relax the friction related stability restrictions but are only feasible in the context of separated discretization. Therefore, a strategy to blend both approaches (unified explicit and separated implicit) is presented that ensures both a perfect balance in steady state and numerical stability in unsteady cases in the presence of friction terms.},keywords = {},}

This paper aims at characterizing water use in a set of paddies located in the central Ebro basin of Spain using experimentation and computer simulation. A commercial field with six interconnected paddies, with a total area of 5.31 ha, was instrumented to measure discharge and water quality at the inflow and at the runoff outlet. The soil was classified as a Typic Calcixerept, and was characterized by a mild salinity (2.5 dS m(-1)) and an infiltration rate of 5.8 mm day(-1). The evolution of flow depth at all paddies was recorded. Data from the 2002 rice-growing season was elaborated using a mass balance approach to estimate the infiltration rate and the evolution of discharge between paddies. Seasonal crop evapotranspiration, estimated with the surface renewal method, was 731 mm (5.1 mm day(-1)), very similar to that of other summer cereals grown in the area, like corn. The irrigation input was 1874 mm, deep percolation was 830 mm and surface runoff was 372 mm. Irrigation efficiency was estimated as 41%. The quality of surface runoff water was slightly degraded due to evapoconcentration and to the contact with the soil. During the period 2001-2003, the electrical conductivity of surface runoff water was 54% higher than that of irrigation water. However, the runoff water was suitable for irrigation. A mechanistic mass balance model of inter-paddy water flow permitted to conclude that improvements in irrigation efficiency cannot be easily obtained in the experimental conditions. Since deep percolation losses more than double surface runoff losses, a reduction in irrigation discharge would not have much room for efficiency improvement. Simulations also showed that rice irrigation performance was not negatively affected by the fluctuating inflow hydrograph. These hydrographs are typical of turnouts located at the tail end of tertiary irrigation ditches. In fact, these are the sites where rice has been historically cultivated in the study area, since local soils are often saline-sodic and can only grow paddy rice taking advantage of the low salinity of the irrigation water. The low infiltration rate characteristic of these saline-sodic soils (an experimental value of 3.2 mm day(-1) was obtained) combined with a reduced irrigation discharge resulted in a simulated irrigation efficiency of 60%. Paddy rice irrigation efficiency can attain reasonable values in the local saline-sodic soils, where the infiltration rate is clearly smaller than the average daily rice evapotranspiration.},keywords = {},}

In the absence of dissipative processes the resulting governing equations are, with rare exceptions, of hyperbolic type. This mathematical property has, in the main, been responsible for the transfer of the Godunov-type numerical methodology, initially developed for the compressible Euler equations of gas dynamics in the aerospace community, to hydraulics and related areas of application. Godunov methods offer distinctive advantages over other methods. For example, they give correct representation of discontinuous waves (bores); this means the correct propagation speed (the methods are conservative), sharp definition of transitions and absence of unphysical oscillations in the vicinity of the wave. Future trends include (i) the use of these methods to deal with physically more complete models without the shallow water assumption and (ii) implementation of very-high order versions of these methods.},keywords = {},}

Infiltration equations including the irrigation discharge or the wetted perimeter as independent variables were proposed for the experimental furrow conditions. Application of a furrow simulation model to the level-furrow experiment resulted in an underestimation of the time of advance. To overcome this problem, a simulation model for level furrows was developed and is presented in a companion paper. The reported field experiments were used to validate the model, which was applied (in a companion paper) to explore adequate conditions for level furrow irrigation performance.},keywords = {},}

A class of upwind methods which attempts to model the equations in a genuinely multidimensional manner has been recently introduced as an alternative. Multidimensional upwind schemes (MUS) were developed initially for the approximation of steady-state solutions of the two-dimensional Euler equations on unstructured grids, although they can be applicable to any system of hyperbolic conservation laws, such as the shallow water equations. The formal analogy between the two systems of equations is useful for simple cases. However, in practical applications of interest in hydraulics, complex geometries and bottom slope variation can lead to important numerical errors produced by an inadequate source term discretization. This problem has been analyzed and, in this work, the necessity of a multidimensional upwind discretization of the source terms is justified. The basis of the numerical method is stated and the particular adaptation to unsteady shallow water flows over irregular geometry is described. As test cases, laboratory experimental data are used together with academic tests for validation.},keywords = {},}

Recently, two-dimensional numerical models have been developed as tools to design and manage basin irrigation systems. In this work, a finite volume-based upwind scheme is used to build a simulation model considering differences in bottom level.

It is the discretisation of the additional terms arising from these two situations which is addressed in this work, given that a specific flux difference splitting method has been used to approximate the underlying conservation law. The discretisation is constructed in a manner which retains an exact balance between the flux gradients and the source terms when this is appropriate. The effectiveness of these new techniques, in both one and two dimensions, is illustrated using the shallow water equations, in which the additional terms arise from the modelling of bed slope and, in one dimension, breadth variation. Roe's scheme is chosen for the approximation of the conservation laws and appropriate discrete forms are constructed for the additional terms, not only in the first-order case but also in the presence of flux- and slope-limited high-resolution corrections. The method is then extended to two-dimensional flow where it can be applied on both quadrilateral and triangular grids.},keywords = {},}

In order to investigate their applicability to hydraulic problems, cubic Hermite polynomials are used as the interpolant technique. The main advantage of such an approach is the use of information from only two points. The derivatives are calculated and limited so as to produce a shape-preserving solution. The lack of conservation of semi-Lagrangian methods, however, is widely regarded as a serious disadvantage for hydraulic studies, where non-linear problems in which shocks may develop are often encountered. In this work we describe how to make the scheme conservative using an FCT approach. The method proposed does not guarantee an unconditional shock-capturing ability but is able to correctly reproduce the discontinuous flows common in open channel simulation without any shock-fitting algorithm. It is a cheap way to improve existing 1D semi-Lagrangian codes and allows stable calculations beyond the usual CFL limits. A basic semi-Lagrangian method is presented that provides excellent results for a linear problem; the new techniques allow us to tackle non-linear cases without unduly degrading the accuracy for the simpler problems. Two one-dimensional hydraulic problems are used as test cases, water hammer and dam break. In the latter case, because of the non-linearity, special care is needed with the low-order solution and we show the advantages of using Leveque's large-time step version of Roe's scheme for this purpose.},keywords = {},}

Verification of the technique is made by comparison with analytical solutions and very good agreement is found.

An approximate Jacobian needed for splitting the flux differences is defined that satisfies the conditions required to construct a first-order upwind conservative discretization of the equations. Added limited second-order corrections make the resulting scheme robust and accurate for the computation of all regimes of open channel flow. Some numerical results and comparisons with other classical schemes under exacting conditions are presented.},keywords = {},}

When simulating unsteady flow through junctions, the usual technique is to assume the equality of water stages. Following the theory of characteristics, we explain that this is a valid approximation for low Froude numbers but impossible to apply in other general cases. A theoretical approach of the steady state at a junction is used to state the unsteady compatibility conditions to be used. A time evolution modelling including supercritical flows, hydraulics jumps and shock propagation through the junction becomes possible and a useful tool to improve complex dam break simulations involving tributaries.},keywords = {},}

The extra step is devised according to the theory of total variation diminishing (TVD) schemes that are capable of capturing sharp discontinuities without generating the spurious oscillations that more classical methods do. At the same time, the extra step does not introduce any additional difficulty for the treatment of the source terms of the equations. Results from several computations arc presented and comparison with the analytical solution for some test problems is shown. The overall performance of the method can be considered verv good, and it allows for accurate open-channel flow computations involving hydraulic jumps and bores.},keywords = {},}
