Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to report the ongoing research into numerical schemes for free surface flows, in particular shallow water ones, as well as their novel applications in civil and environmental engineering.
Topics of primary interest include but are not limited to:
- Boundary conditions;
- Wet dry treatment;
- Multilayer flows;
- Sediment transport dynamics;
- Pollutant dispersion treatment.
Traditional and innovative approaches will be considered—continuous models based on integration of Navier Stokes equations or particle approaches such as the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM).
Applications focusing on high-performance computing, environmental hydraulics, dam break flows, hydraulic risk analysis, and fluid–structure interactions will be also considered for publication.
We therefore invite you to submit your latest research findings showing your progress in the field of hydraulic engineering to this Special Issue of Water (ISSN 2073-4441)—an open access journal (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/water).
