The numerical oscillation problem is a difficulty for the simulation of rapidly varying shallow water surfaces which are often caused by the unsmooth uneven bottom, the moving wet-dry interface, and so on. In this paper, an adaptive artificial viscosity (AAV) is proposed and combined with the displacement shallow water wave equation (DSWWE) to establish an effective model which can accurately predict the evolution of multiple shocks effected by the uneven bottom and the wet-dry interface. The effectiveness of the proposed AAV is first illustrated by using the steady-state solution and the small perturbation analysis. Then, the action mechanism of the AAV on the shallow water waves with the uneven bottom is explained by using the Fourier theory. It is shown that the AVV can suppress the wave with the large wave number, and can also suppress the numerical oscillations for the rapidly varying bottom. Finally, four numerical examples are given, and the numerical results show that the DSWWE combined with the AAV can effectively simulate the shock waves, accurately capture the movements of wet-dry interfaces, and precisely preserve the mass.

In this paper, the shallow water problem is discussed. By treating the incompressible condition as the constraint, a constrained Hamilton variational principle is presented for the shallow water problem. Based on the constrained Hamilton variational principle, a shallow water equation based on displacement and pressure (SWE-DP) is developed. A hybrid numerical method combining the finite element method for spatial discretization and the Zu-class method for time integration is created for the SWEDP. The correctness of the proposed SWE-DP is verified by numerical comparisons with two existing shallow water equations (SWEs). The effectiveness of the hybrid numerical method proposed for the SWE-DP is also verified by numerical experiments. Moreover, the numerical experiments demonstrate that the Zu-class method shows excellent performance with respect to simulating the long time evolution of the shallow water. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Pseudo-division algorithm for matrix multivariable polynomial are given, thereby with the view of differential algebra, the sufficient and necessary conditions for transforming a class of partial differential equations into infinite dimensional Hamiltonianian system and its concrete form are obtained. Then by combining this method with Wu's method, a new method of constructing general solution of a class of mechanical equations is got, which several examples show very effective.
