Both the vertically-integrated (ADCIRC-2DDI) and the fully three-dimensional (ADCIRC-3D) versions of ADCIRC solve a vertically-integrated continuity equation for water surface elevation. To avoid the spurious oscillations that are associated with a primitive Galerkin finite element formulation of this equation, ADCIRC utilizes the Generalized Wave Continuity Equation (GWCE) formulation. Development of the weak weighted residual form of the GWCE used in ADCIRC is briefly summarized below.

ADCIRC is a highly developed computer program for solving the equations of motion for a moving fluid on a rotating earth. These equations have been formulated using the traditional hydrostatic pressure and Boussinesq approximations and have been discretized in space using the finite element (FE) method and in time using the finite difference (FD) method.
