[en] Dam-break flow computation is a task of prime interest in the scope of risk analysis processes related to dams and reservoirs. High resolution Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) available today provide extremely dense and accurate topography information in the valley downstream of these structures, even in urban area. In this paper, a 2D finite volume flow solver, able to deal with these DEMs, is presented in details. Validation examples are comprehensively described.
