Abstract
Inland navigation networks are composed of several artificial canals, usually characterized by no slope. These canals are large-scale systems that can be accurately described by means of the nonlinear Saint-Venant partial differential equations. However, the lack of an analytical [...]Abstract
It is demonstrated how finite-volume methods can be designed such that, next to the primary invariants (mass, momentum and internal energy), they also conserve secondary invariants (kinetic energy), i.e., they are supra-conservative. Key ingredient is a consistency between the discrete [...]
