Turner-Bridges paper to appear in the European Journal of Mechanics B/Fluids

The paper “Wetting and drying of two-layer shallow-water flow in a moving vessel via semi-Lagrangian simulation” co-authored by Matt Turner and Tom Bridges has been accepted for publication in the European Journal of Mechanics B/Fluids. The paper considers a novel numerical approach to solve the shallow-water resonant rectilinear sloshing problem in a rectangular vessel. The numerical approach time-steps using a semi-Lagrangian scheme. The benefit of using such a scheme is that the method was able to capture the wetting and drying of the vessel’s rigid lid, a feature which has not been captured in shallow-water simulations to date.
