RITAl aver and zdal Analysis, 1-D version) uses a flexible finite element wave equation formulation to solve for the one dimensional shallow water equations. The model allows great flexibility in the choice (a) of the time-discretization scheme, including the ability to handle each physical process differently, and (b) of strategies for the treatment of non-linear terms. 000008070 650__ $$aHydrodynamics$$038932 000008070 650__ $$aResearch$$025336 000008070 692__ $$aDepartment of Environmental Science and Engineering$$041415 000008070 7001_ $$aRodrigues Remedio, Jose M. 000008070 7001_ $$uOregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology$$041352 000008070 8564_ $$92c9db533-09f8-4a90-aa65-8a9315951fa8$$s6312746$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8070/files/199204.remedio.jose.pdf 000008070 905__ $$a/rest/prod/tb/09/j6/28/tb09j628f 000008070 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:8070$$pstudent-work 000008070 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
