From Courant to Saint Venant

Explore the fundamental equations underlying hydraulic modeling programs in this 58-minute webinar from the Australian Water School. Delve into the origins of the Saint-Venant shallow water equations, tracing them back to first principles. Learn about conservation of mass, energy, and momentum, implicit vs. explicit solutions, and various analysis methods. Understand the significance of the Courant Number and compare Navier-Stokes to Saint Venant equations. Gain insights from expert presenters who break down complex concepts using real-world analogies. This webinar serves as an introduction to the Hydrology and Hydraulics (H&H) Essentials training series, offering a comprehensive overview of hydraulic modeling foundations.
