Second‐order finite volume with hydrostatic reconstruction for tsunami simulation
Abstract Tsunami modeling commonly accepts the shallow water system as governing equations where the major difficulty is the correct treatment of the nonconservative term due to bathymetry variations. The finite volume method for solving the shallow water equations with such source terms has receive...

Abstract Tsunami modeling commonly accepts the shallow water system as governing equations where the major difficulty is the correct treatment of the nonconservative term due to bathymetry variations. The finite volume method for solving the shallow water equations with such source terms has received great attention in the two last decades. The built‐in conservation property, the capacity to correctly treat discontinuities, and the ability to handle complex bathymetry configurations preserving some steady state configurations (well‐balanced scheme) make the method very efficient.
