WAT: A Numerical Method for Two-Dimensional Unsteady Fluid Flow

Abstract

A method is described in which difference equations are derived by application of the principle of virtual work to a particular fluid model. Some other innovations involve the viscous pressure, different time intervals for different points, and a method of handling the collision of free interfaces.
