Overview
Analysis of open-channel flow is essential for the planning, design, and operation of water-resource projects. The use of computers and the availability of efficient computational procedures has simplified such analysis, and made it possible to handle increasingly complex systems. In Open-Channel Flow, Second Edition, author Hanif Chaudhry draws upon years of practical experience and incorporates numerous examples and real life applications, to provide the reader with: A strong emphasis on the application of efficient solution techniques, computational procedures, and numerical methods suitable for computer analyses; Complete coverage of steady and unsteady flow techniques; A new chapter on sediment transport and updated chapters on uniform flow and two dimensional flow techniques; New and updated problem sets and exercises, a solutions manual for instructors. Open-Channel Flow, Second Edition is written for students in senior-level undergraduate and graduate courses on steady and unsteady open-channel flow and for civil engineers needing up-to-date and relevant information on the latest developments and techniques in the field.

Aus den Rezensionen zur 2. Auflage: In dem Handbuch ... wird ausf hrlich auf die Theorie der unterschiedlichen Flie zust nde, die zu ber cksichtigenden Bedingungen und Auslegungsans tze, den Sedimenttransport u. v. a. m. eingegangen. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt wird auf die Umsetzung der Berechnungen in den unterschiedlichen Programmen und Verfahren sowie den jeweils zu beachtenden Gesetzm igkeiten und Randbedingungen gelegt, so dass dieses Werk nicht nur f r Einsteiger von Interesse sein d rfte.
