NUMERICAL MODELING OF HYDRODYNAMIC PROCESSES IN THE TAGANROG BAY OF THE AZOV SEA

Abstract
This paper covers the creation and numerical realization of proposed mathematical model of hydrodynamical processes in shallow water based on contemporary information technology and new computational methods that allow improve the prediction accuracy of the environmental situation using the example of the Taganrog Bay in the Azov Sea basin. The proposed mathematical hydrodynamics model takes into account surges, dynamically reconstructed geometry, elevation of the level and coastline, wind currents and friction against the bottom, Coriolis force, turbulent exchange, evaporation, river flow, deviation of the pressure field value from the hydrostatic approximation, the salinity and temperature impact. The discretization of the mathematical model of hydrodynamics was performed using the splitting schemes for physical processes. The constructed discrete analogs possess the properties of conservatism, stability, and convergence. Numerical algorithms are also proposed for solving the arising SLAEs that improve the accuracy of predictive modeling. The practical significance of this research is software implementation of the developed model and the determination of limits and prospects of its application. The experimental software development was based on a graphics accelerator for mathematical simulation the possible scenarios of shallow water ecosystems in consideration the environmental factors influence. The decomposition methods taking into account the CUDA architecture specifications were used at parallel implementation for computationally labors diffusion-convection problems.
