HydroSed2D
The open source code HydroSed2D
stands for two-dimensional Hydrodynamics and Sediment
transport. It solves the non-linear shallow water equations based on
unstructured meshes. It is easy to model complicated domain. Sediment
transport can be solved in both quasi-steady and coupled modes with the
hydrodynamic part.
Current release of HydroSed2D is v1.0. It is currently not under active development anymore. It is made public so it may be useful to others. There are many alternatives such as SRH-2D and HEC-RAS 2D.
HydroSed2D can be downloaded from GitHub (it was migrated from sourceforge for convenience).

This case is to show the ability of the code to capture the dry/wet interface. It is also compared with the 3D Volume of Fluid (VOF) CFD simulation result with OpenFOAM.
