Abstract

A number of papers have appeared in the past years that use characteristic methods and finite difference schemes to solve the flood routing problem, [1,4].The finite element methods on the other hand have only recently been applied to the two-dimensional shallow-water flow equations [5].The purpose of this report ;s to present a survey of numerical methods used in solving the flood-routing problem.These methods are compared to a finite element scheme developed according to the Ga11 erk i n method ."'Scheol of Civil EYI.gineeri.ng,PU.l'(b.A.~lmiiJer8ity~111.
