CSDMS 2023: Patterns and Processes Across Scales
Finite Volume Methods for Surface Dynamics Modeling
Abstract
Many problems of interest to CSDMS members involve solving systems of conservation laws or balance laws for water wave propagation and inundation, erosion and sediment transport, landscape evolution, or for the flow of overland floods, glaciers, lava, or groundwater. It is often natural to solve these partial differential equations numerically with finite volume methods, in which the domain of interest is divided in finite grid cells and the quantities of interest within each grid cell are updated every time step due to fluxes across the cell boundaries and/or processes within the cell. I will give a brief introduction to some of the general theory of finite volume methods and considerations that affect their accuracy and numerical stability, with illustrations from some of the applications mentioned above.
