Practical Hydraulics and Water Resources Engineering

Reviews / Votes

"Practical hydraulics gives an excellent introduction to this important field, using the type of language and real-world examples that bring the subject to life. With the mathematical content kept to a minimum, it should appeal to those approaching the subject for the first time, be they undergraduate students or other interested professionals."

-- Grant Wright, Heriot-Watt University, UK

"The book deals with the key issues of water management in a lively and informative way and the writing style engages well with an interested reader. The focus is less on mathematics and more on understanding the key issues"

-- Derek Clarke, University of Southampton, UK

"The book contains many excellent explanations of fundamental hydraulic principles, presented in a way which is understandable to students from many disciplines. Its scope is carefully extended by introducing some of the common hydraulic equations and their uses, in well-constructed examples."
