Hydraulics of Levee Overtopping
暫譯: 堤防溢流的水力學

土壤堤防廣泛用於保護人口和基礎設施免受定期洪水和風暴潮引起的高水位影響。堤防失效的原因包括溢流、表面侵蝕、內部侵蝕和坡度不穩定。溢流可能在洪水期間發生，原因是自由高度不足。最棘手的情況是當潮位超過堤防頂部高度並伴隨波浪溢流時，堤防同時被潮水和波浪淹沒。堤防的溢流會在陸側坡面產生快速流動的湍流水流，這可能會損壞保護性草皮，並使底層土壤暴露於侵蝕中。如果溢流持續時間過長，侵蝕最終可能導致堤防頂部高度的喪失，甚至可能造成保護結構的破壞。因此，保護堤防免受潮水溢流和波浪溢流的侵蝕是確保堤防系統可行和安全的必要措施。

本書提出了一種前沿的方法來理解土壤堤防在負自由高度下的溢流水力學，以及堤防加固方法的研究。結合土壤侵蝕測試、全尺度實驗室溢流水力學測試和湍流溢流水力學的數值建模。它提供了一個分析，整合了控制堤防溢流發生的機械和水力過程，以及加固被淹沒堤防的工程方法。涵蓋的主題包括：潮水溢流、波浪溢流及其組合、全尺度水力測試、侵蝕測試、溢流水力學、溢流排放和湍流分析。

這是一本對於從事堤防設計、水資源工程、水力工程和海岸工程的研究生和研究人員，以及土木和環境工程及自然災害分析領域的專業人士來說，都是一個無價的資源。
