A fully well-balanced, positive and entropy-satisfying Godunov-type method for the shallow-water equations

Source abstract

This work is devoted to the derivation of a fully well-balanced numerical scheme for the well-known shallow-water model. During the last two decades, several well-balanced strategies have been introduced with special attention to the exact capture of the stationary states associated with the so-called lake at rest. By fully well-balanced, we mean here that the proposed Godunov-type method is also able to preserve stationary states with non zero velocity. The numerical procedure is shown to preserve the positiveness of the water height and satisfies a discrete entropy inequality.
