    3 Geoscience Australia and the Australian National University are developing an Open Source hydrodynamic inundation modelling tool called ANUGA to
    4 help simulate the impact of hydrological hazards. The core of ANUGA is a fluid dynamics module, which is based on a finite-volume
    5 method for solving the Shallow Water Wave Equation. The study area is represented by a mesh of triangular cells. By
    6 solving the governing equation within each cell, water depth and horizontal momentum are tracked over time.
     3ANUGA is the name of a Free & Open Source Software (FOSS) package which is capable of modelling the impact of hydrological disasters such as dam breaks, riverine flooding, storm-surge or tsunamis.

    8 A major capability of ANUGA is that it can model the process of wetting and drying as water enters and leaves
    9 an area. This means that it is suitable for simulating water flow onto a beach or dry land and around structures such as
    10 buildings. ANUGA is also capable of modelling hydraulic jumps due to the ability of the finite-volume method
    11 to accommodate discontinuities in the solution.
     5ANUGA is based on the Shallow Water Wave Equation discretised to unstructured triangular meshes using a finite-volumes numerical scheme. A major capability of ANUGA is that it can model the process of wetting and drying as water enters and leaves an area. This means that it is suitable for simulating water flow onto a beach or dry land and around structures such as buildings. ANUGA is also capable of modelling difficult flows involving shock waves and rapidly changing flow speeds (transitions from sub critical to super critical flows).

     7ANUGA is developed by the Australian National University (ANU) and Geoscience Australia (GA) - hence the name.
