Dam Breaking on a Column, Shallow Water Equations

Application ID: 89161


This example uses the Shallow Water equations to model the impact of a water wave on a column. A body of water with a height of 0.3 meters is initially contained behind a gate. At the start of the simulation, the gate is suddenly released and the body of water forms a wave moving toward the structure. After impacting, the water continues its forward movement until it is reflected at the wall of the tank, and consequently impinges on the other side of the column. The pressure force on the column is calculated and can be compared with experimental results.
