A Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Two-Dimensional Shock Wave Modeling

A numerical scheme based on discontinuous Galerkin method is proposed for the two-dimensional shallow water flows. The scheme is applied to model flows with shock waves. The form of shallow water equations that can eliminate numerical imbalance between flux term and source term and simplify comput...
