In this thesis a high order finite difference scheme is derived and implemented solving the shallow water equations using the SBP-SAT method. This method was tested against various benchmark problems were convergence was verified. The shallow water equations were also solved on a multi-block setup representing a tsunami approaching a shoreline from the ocean. Experiments show that a bottom topography with many spikes provides a dispersing effect on the incoming tsunami wave. Higher order convergence is not guaranteed for the multi-block simulations and could be investigated further in a future study.
