Hydrostatic Upwind Schemes for Shallow–Water Equations

We consider the numerical approximation of the shallow–water equations with non–flat topography. We introduce a new topography discretization that makes all schemes to be well–balanced and robust. At the discrepancy with the well–known hydrostatic reconstruction, the proposed numerical procedure does not involve any cut–off. Moreover, the obtained scheme is able to deal with dry areas. Several numerical benchmarks are performed to assert the interest of the method.
