  • Abstract
    The present study is a contribution to free surface flow simulation by numerical resolution of Saint-Venant s equations, which form a nonlinear hyperbolic system. For reasons of stability and accuracy, we apply finite volume method, based on Riemann problem’s resolution using shock capturing schemes. Application tests for steady and unsteady flows confirm the capacity of these schemes to maintain stability and precision.
