Résumé

A textbook on hydraulics and hydraulic engineering. Includes numerous worked examples, case studies, and end-of-chapter exercises. Recommended reading and web-directed activities expand the content and direct students to the broader field. For intermediate to advanced undergraduate and graduate students in civil and environmental engineering.Written for a one-semester course in hydraulics, this concise textbook is rooted in the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics and aims to promote sound hydraulic engineering practice. Basic methods are presented to underline the theory and engineering applications, and examples and problems build in complexity as students work their way through the textbook. Abundant worked examples and calculations, real-world case studies, and revision exercises, as well as precisely crafted end-of-chapter exercises ensure students learn exactly what they need in order to consolidate their knowledge and progress in their career. Students learn to solve pipe networks, optimize pumping systems, design pumps and turbines, solve differential equations for gradually-varied flow and unsteady flow, and gain knowledge of hydraulic structures like spillways, gates, valves, and culverts. An essential textbook for intermediate to advanced undergraduate and graduate students in civil and environmental engineering.Preface; Notation; 1. Hydrostatics; 2. Flow in Pipes; 3.
