Abstract: | Two-dimensional initial-boundary value problems are considered for the shallow water equations and the equation of advection and dispersion of pollutants. The problems are solved in curvilinear boundary fitted co-ordinates. The transformed equations are integrated on a regular grid by the semi-implicit and implicit finite difference methods. Based on the numerical method, the integrated modelling system Cardinal for coastal area dynamics and pollution processes is developed for application on personal computers. Examples of computations are given. |
