Two-Dimensional Lagrangian Hydrodynamic Difference Equations

Abstract

A numerical model of a fluid is constructed by adding a tensor artificial viscosity to the hydrodynamic differential equations which are then differenced to produce a set of equations suitable for solving on a digital computer. The equations apply to a system of two space coordinates and one time coordinate. The space coordinates can be either Cartesian or cylindrical.
