Abstract :
Dams are hydraulic structures that have a high risk of natural disasters. This can be caused by several factors such as overflow, foundation defects, or leakage. Mitigation efforts are carried out through various methods including mathematical modeling of dam break scenarios. This mathematical modeling is performed to evaluate the fluid flow that occurs and analyze the likelihood of a disaster. The Shallow Water Equations, derived by Adhemar Jean Claude Barre de Saint-Venant, are the general equations used in mathematical modeling of dam break scenarios. These equations are solved using superior numerical methods in terms of computation, such as the Finite Difference Method with Collocation Grid (Crowhurst-Li FDM), Lax-Friedrichs method, and MacCormack method. These numerical methods can be performed using MATLAB programs. The output obtained includes water surface elevation and fluid velocity graphs. It was found that the MacCormack finite difference method provided more accurate results in solving dam break scenarios.
