It details on Galerkin residual method employing PIM shape functions in discretizing the unsteady partial differential equation. Two nonlinear solvers are considered; Picard and Newton-Raphson. The formulation are verified against both hypothetical data obtained from conventional numerical methods (finite difference and finite element method) and gauged data obtained from an actual river. Close agreements are obtained between the proposed PIM formulation and the conventional methods thus highlight the potential of PIM as an alternative numerical method in the field of hydrologic modelling. © Medwell Journals, 2017. date: 2017 publisher: Medwell Journals official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85035011398&doi=10.3923%2fjeasci.2017.5286.5293&partnerID=40&md5=73e43cf0ec1e046950170f7b683cf9bc id_number: 10.3923/jeasci.2017.5286.5293 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences volume: 12 number: 20 pagerange: 5286-5293 refereed: TRUE issn: 1816949X citation: Hirol, H. and Noor, M.A.M. and Kasiman, E.H. and Hong, A.K.B. and Yusop, Z. and Yassin, A.Y.M.
