Description
For a one-semester, undergraduate-level course in Hydraulic Engineering.
Designed to bridge the gap between basic principles and the techniques applied to the design and analysis of hydraulic engineering systems. This text exposes students to many problems commonly encountered in practice, various solution scenarios (e.g., design formulas, tables, and computer software) that are written by one of the largest commercial vendors of hydrology and hydraulics software.
