This paper deals with the numerical resolution of a shallow water viscoplastic flow model. Viscoplastic materials are characterized by the existence of a yield stress: below a certain critical threshold in the imposed stress, there is no deformation and the material behaves like a rigid solid, but when that yield value is exceeded, the material...

Starting from Navier-Stokes' equation we derive two shallow water multilayer models for yield stress fluids, depending on the asymptotic analysis. One of them takes into account the normal stress contributions, making possible to recover a pseudoplug layer instead of a purely plug zone. A specific numerical scheme is designed to solve this...

We are interested in the derivation of an integrated Herschel-Bulkley model for shallow flows, as well as in the design of a numerical algorithm to solve the resulting equations. The goal is to simulate the evolution of thin sheet of viscoplastic materials on inclined planes and, in particular, to be able to compute the evolution from dynamic...
