Popis: In this paper, we explore the possibility to derive an original lattice Boltzmann scheme for solving shallow water equations. Specifically, it is proposed to decompose the collision operator by means of a non-orthogonal basis of central moments which relax independently to a discrete equilibrium. Our method is strictly consistent with the BGK operator, as the latter is recovered exactly if all the moments relax with a common frequency. The methodology is validated against five well-consolidated established benchmark problems, showing very good agreement. Moreover, it possesses very high properties in terms of stability.
