| Summary |
A definitive guide for accurate state-of-the-art modelling of free surface flows. Understanding the dynamics of free surface flows is the starting point of many environmental studies, impact studies, and waterworks design. Typical applications, once the flows are known, are water quality, dam impact and safety, pollutant control, and sediment transport |
