FrictionLawManning()

template<typename VolumeVariables >

Dumux::FrictionLawManning< VolumeVariables >::FrictionLawManning ( const Scalar  gravity, const Scalar  manningN  )

Constructor.

Parameters

gravity	Gravity constant (in m/s^2)
manningN	Manning friction coefficient (in s/m^(1/3))

bottomShearStress()

template<typename VolumeVariables >

Dune::FieldVector< Scalar, 2 > Dumux::FrictionLawManning< VolumeVariables >::bottomShearStress ( const VolumeVariables &  volVars ) const

inlinefinalvirtual

Compute the bottom shear stress.

Parameters

volVars

Volume variables

Compute the bottom shear stress due to bottom friction. The bottom shear stress is a projection of the shear stress tensor onto the river bed. It can therefore be represented by a (tangent) vector with two entries.

Returns

shear stress in N/m^2. First entry is the x-component, the second the y-component.

inlineinherited

Limit the friction for small water depth.

We define a water depth minUpperH. If the water depth is smaller, we start to limit the friction. So the friction term gets not extreme large for small water depths.

For the limiting the LET model is used, which is usually applied in the porous media flow to limit the permeability due to the saturation. It employs the three empirical parameters L, E and T, which describe the limiting curve (mobility).

auto mobility = (mobility_max * pow(sw,L))/(pow(sw,L) + E * pow(1.0-sw,T));

For the limitation of the roughness height L = 0.0, T = 2.0 and E = 1.0 are chosen. Therefore the calculation of the mobility is simplified significantly.

Parameters

roughnessHeight	roughness height of the representative structure (e.g. largest grain size).
waterDepth	water depth.

< maximal mobility
