The application domains vary including contaminant transport with or without sorption, the motion of immiscible hydrocarbons in aquifers, pipe transients, open channel and shallow water flow, and compressible gas dynamics.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cp\u003eThe mathematical formulation is covered from the angle of conservation laws, with an emphasis on multidimensional problems and discontinuous flows, such as steep fronts and shock waves.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFinite difference-, finite volume- and finite element-based numerical methods (including discontinuous Galerkin techniques) are covered and applied to various physical fields. Additional chapters include the treatment of geometric source terms, as well as direct and adjoint sensitivity modeling for hyperbolic conservation laws. A concluding chapter is devoted to practical recommendations to the modeler.\u003cbr\u003e Application exercises with on-line solutions are proposed at the end of the chapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eVincent Guinot\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of hydrodynamic modeling at the University of Montpellier, France.
