Résumé :
|
One of the problem that has greatly attracted the interest of researchers in the field of hydraulics is dam-break wave analysis. This is probably due to the fact that a dam-break wave is characterized by strong acceleration and velocity of water particles and this rises questions about the equations which are more suitable for representing the physics of the phenomenum and poses problems in their numerical solution. Theinterest for such problem is not only accademic. In fact in many industrilized countries dam-break wave analysis is presently carried out in order to ascertain the risk of inundation of areas located downstream of existing dams and consequently to prepare civil protection plans. Maps of inundation risk are also being used for future development planning of inhabitated areas and for insurance purposes.
