Abstract

We introduce here TELEMAC-2DST, a two dimensional finite element system of sediment transport and morphological evolution. This system has the same finite element structure as the 2D code TELEMAC solving the shallow water equations. TELEMAC-2DST is made of two models: one which deals with bed-load transport and the other one with suspended sediment transport. Results of these models are described in the present paper.
