Description
The text provides an introduction to the theory of civil engineering hydraulics, backed up with a large number of worked examples and exercise problems, with answers, to help readers assess their understanding of the theory and methods of analysis and design. For the second edition a new chapter on uniform flow in loose boundary channels has been added. For the first time, a Solutions Manual will be available with this new edition.
