[1] A new geometrical conservative interpolation on unstructured meshes is developed for preserving still water equilibrium and positivity of water depth at each iteration of mesh movement, leading to an adaptive moving finite volume (AMFV) scheme for modeling flood inundation over dry and complex topography. Unlike traditional schemes involving position-fixed meshes, the iteration process of the AFMV scheme moves a fewer number of the meshes adaptively in response to flow variables calculated in prior solutions and then simulates their posterior values on the new meshes. At each time step of the simulation, the AMFV scheme consists of three parts: an adaptive mesh movement to shift the vertices position, a geometrical conservative interpolation to remap the flow variables by summing the total mass over old meshes to avoid the generation of spurious waves, and a partial differential equations(PDEs) discretization to update the flow variables for a new time step. Five different test cases are presented to verify the computational advantages of the proposed scheme over nonadaptive methods. The results reveal three attractive features: (i) the AMFV scheme could preserve still water equilibrium and positivity of water depth within both mesh movement and PDE discretization steps; (ii) it improved the shockcapturing capability for handling topographic source terms and wet-dry interfaces by moving triangular meshes to approximate the spatial distribution of time-variant flood processes; (iii) it was able to solve the shallow water equations with a relatively higher accuracy and spatial-resolution with a lower computational cost.
In this paper we study the boundedness and the asymptotic behavior of positive solutions for the difference equationwhere a, b are positive constants, and the initial values x −1 , x 0 are nonnegative numbers.
