Contents:
1. Hydraulics and Hydrology in Engineering. -- 2. Fluid Mechanics. -- 3. Fundamenta Hydrostatics. -- 4. Fundamental Hydrodynamics. -- 5. Hydraulic Devices. -- 6. Open Channel Hydraulics. -- 7. Uniform Flow in Channels. -- 8. Varied Flow in Channels. -- 9 Culvert Hydraulics. -- 10. Fundamental Hydrology. -- 11. Runoff Calculations. -- 12. Storm Sewer Design. -- 13. Culvert Design. -- 14. Stormwater Detention. -- 15. Detention Design. -- Appendix A: Design Charts for Open Channel Flow -- B: Design Charts for Culverst -- C: Design Charts for Rational Method -- D: Design Charts for NNRCS Method -- E: Symbols -- F: Unit Conversions
Summary: With its comprehensive coverage of hydraulics and hydrology in a non-calculus format, the Fourth Edition of INTRODUCTION TO HYDRAULICS & HYDROLOGY continues the same straightforward, practical approach that has made previous editions so popular. Designed to provide readers with an understanding of the concepts of hydraulics and surface water hydrology as they are used in everyday practice, this edition contains multiple opportunities for practice and real-world applications that are relevant to civil engineering, land developing, public works, and land surveying. Coverage includes topics such as the history of water engineering, basic concepts of computation and design, principles of hydrostatics and hydrodynamics, open channel flow, unit hydrographs, and rainfall, runoff, and routing. Up-to-date, clearly solved examples are included throughout the book to help readers understand how concepts apply in the real-world.
