The fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model for shallow water waves of large amplitude is studied. The original model is first recast under a new formulation more suitable for numerical resolution. An hybrid finite volume and finite difference splitting approach is then proposed, wh

✦ Synopsis
In this paper a hybrid numerical method using a Godunov type scheme is proposed to solve the Green-Naghdi model describing dispersive ''shallow water" waves. The corresponding equations are rewritten in terms of new variables adapted for numerical studies. In particular, the numerical scheme preserves the dynamics of solitary waves. Some numerical results are shown and compared to exact and/or experimental ones in different and significant configurations. A dam-break problem and an impact problem where a liquid cylinder is falling to a rigid wall are solved numerically. This last configuration is also compared with experiments leading to a good qualitative agreement.

A pseudo-spectral algorithm is presented for the solution of the rotating Green-Naghdi shallow water equations in two spatial dimensions. The equations are first written in vorticity-divergence form, in order to exploit the fact that time-derivatives then appear implicitly in the divergence equation
