Depth-averaged Flow

Depth-Averaged Flow is a hydrodynamic model that belongs to the class of flow representation methods in fluid mechanics and is distinguished by its derivation of flow velocity as the average over the vertical depth of the flow, simplifying three-dimensional flow dynamics into two-dimensional horizontal motion while retaining essential characteristics of uniform flow.
