This paper is concerned with the numerical approximation of bedload sediment transport due to water evolution. For the hydrodynamical component we consider Shallow Water equations. The morphodynamical component is defined by a continuity equation, which is defined in function of the solid transport discharge. We present several deterministic models, such as Meyer-Peter & Müller, Van Rijn or Grass model. We also present an unified definition for the solid transport discharge, and we compare with Grass model. Both components define a coupled system of equations that can be rewrite as a non-conservative hyperbolic system. To discretize it, we consider finite volume methods with or without flux limiters and high order state reconstructions. Finally we present several tests, where we observe numerically the order of the numerical schemes. Comparisons with analytical solutions and experimental data are also presented

This paper is concerned with the development of well-balanced high order Roe methods for two-dimensional nonconservative hyperbolic systems. In particular, we are interested in extending the methods introduced in (Castro et al., Math. Comput. 75:1103–1134, 2006) to the two-dimensional case. We also investigate the well-balance properties and the consistency of the resulting schemes. We focus in applications to one and two layer shallow water systems.

In this paper, we study the numerical approximation of bedload sediment transport due to shallow layer flows. The hydrodynamical component is modeled by a 2D shallow water system and the morphodynamical component by a solid transport discharge formula that depends on the hydrodynamical variables. The coupled system can be written as a nonconservative hyperbolic system. To discretize it, first we consider a Roe-type first order scheme as well as a variant based on the use of flux limiters. These first order schemes are then extended to second order accuracy by means of a new MUSCL-type reconstruction operator on unstructured meshes. Finally, some numerical tests are presented
