Description

Motivation

The so-called Saint-Venant equations are largely used in the hydraulic domain to model the dynamics of an open channel flow. These equations consist of two nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs. In the considered benchmark, under mild simplifying assumptions detailed in , the St Venant PDE equations describing the height variation $h$ of the river as a function of the inflow $q_i$ and outflow $q_o$ variations, at location $x$ ($x\in [0L]$, $L\in {\mathbb{ℝ}}_{+}$), obtained around some flow and height linearisation point, can be formulated as follows:

$h(x,s)={\mathbf{G}}_{\mathbf{𝐢}}(x,s)q_i(s)-{\mathbf{G}}_{\mathbf{𝐨}}(x,s)q_o(s)=\mathbf{𝐇}(x,s)u(s).$

The ${\mathbf{𝐆}}_i$ and ${\mathbf{𝐆}}_o$ functions are irrational and read

${\mathbf{G}}_{\mathbf{𝐢}}(x,s)=\frac{{\lambda }_1(s)e^{{\lambda }_2(s)L+{\lambda }_1(s)x}-{\lambda }_2(s)e^{{\lambda }_1(s)L+{\lambda }_2(s)x}}{B_{0}s(e^{{\lambda }_1(s)L}-e^{{\lambda }_2(s)L})}$

and

${\mathbf{G}}_{\mathbf{𝐨}}(x,s)=\frac{{\lambda }_1(s)e^{{\lambda }_1(s)x}-{\lambda }_2(s)e^{{\lambda }_2(s)x}}{B_{0}s(e^{{\lambda }_1(s)L}-e^{{\lambda }_2(s)L})}$
