商品描述

Now in the third edition, this text on open-channel flow presents introductory material on the topic as well as up-to-date information for the planning, design, and operation of water-resource projects. It has a very strong emphasis on the application of efficient solution techniques, computational procedures, and modern methods of analysis and provides detailed coverage of steady and unsteady flows. The new edition includes a new chapter on the modeling of levee breach, new sections on hydraulic models and velocity measurements, new and updated references and problem sets and exercises, and a solutions manual. The material has been class tested over many years and the book is an ideal textbook for students in senior-level undergraduate and graduate courses on open-channel flow and hydraulic engineering, and as a reference for civil engineers needing up-to-date information on the latest developments in open-channel flow.

作者簡介

M. Hanif Chaudhry, Ph.D., is CEC Distinguished Professor of Civil Engineering and Associate Dean (International Programs) in the College of Engineering and Computing, University of South Carolina. Dr. Chaudhry received his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. His area of specialization is water resource engineering with emphasis on the mathematical and physical modeling of steady and unsteady flows in closed conduits and open-channel. He has served as a specialist consultant to national and international organizations and consulting engineering companies in all six continents on large water resource projects and to law firms in litigation cases. His research interests include both numerical and experimental investigations on fluid transients in pipelines, on flood flows in rivers and channels, on levee breach, and on dam failure.
