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.

A new two-dimensional shallow water model including pressure effects and slow varying bottom topography

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced appropriate scalings into a three-dimensional anisotropic eddy viscosity model; after averaging on the vertical direction and considering some asymptotic assumptions, they obtained a two-dimensional model, which approximates the threedimensional model at the second order with respect to the ratio between the vertical scale and the longitudinal scale.

Long-time effects of bottom topography in shallow water

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present and discuss new shallow water equations that provide an estimate of the long-time asymptotic effects of slowly varying bottom topography and weak hydrostatic imbalance on the vertically averaged horizontal velocity of an incompressible fluid with a free surface which is moving under the force of gravity.

Classical Solutions for a Generalized Euler Equation in Two Dimensions

TL;DR: In this paper, the Euler equations in two spatial dimensions have global classical solutions, and a new proof which is analytic rather than geometric is provided which is set in an abstract framework that applies to the so-called lake and the great lake equations describing weakly non-hydrostatic effects of bottom topography on the motion of shallow water.

Justification of the Shallow-Water Limit for a Rigid-Lid Flow with Bottom Topography

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that any solution to the lake equations remains close to some solution of the rigid-lid equations for an interval of time that can be made arbitrarily large by choosing the aspect ratio of the basin small.
