Abstract
The motion of an incompressible fluid confined to a shallow basin with a varying bottom topography is considered. We introduce appropriate scalings into a three-dimensional anisotropic eddy viscosity model to derive a two-dimensional shallow water model. The global regularity of the resulting model is proved. The anisotropic form of the stress tensor in our three-dimensional eddy viscosity model plays a critical role in ensuring that the resulting shallow water model dissipates energy.

Derivation of a non-hydrostatic shallow water model; Comparison with Saint-Venant and Boussinesq systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the non-hydrostatic Saint-Venant system for shallow waters including friction and viscosity from the free surface Navier-Stokes system, leading to two formulations of growing complexity depending on the level of approximation chosen for the fluid pressure.
