Description
This is the second volume of a two-volume guide to designing, conducting and interpreting laboratory and field experiments in a broad range of topics associated with hydraulic engineering. Specific guidance is provided on methods and instruments currently used in experimental hydraulics, with emphasis on new and emerging measurement technologies and methods of analysis. Additionally, this book offers a concise outline of essential background theory, underscoring the intrinsic connection between theory and experiments.
Experimental Hydraulics: Methods, Instrumentation, Data Processing and Management is much needed, as experimental hydraulicians have had to refer to guidance scattered in scientific papers or specialised monographs on essential aspects of laboratory and fieldwork practice. The book is the result of the first substantial effort in the community of hydraulic engineering to describe in one place all the components of experimental hydraulics.
Included is the work of a team of more than 45 professional experimentalists, who explore innovative approaches to the vast array of experiments of differing complexity encountered by today’s hydraulic engineer, from laboratory to field, from simple but well-conceived to complex and well-instrumented. The style of this book is intentionally succinct, making frequent use of convenient summaries, tables, and examples to present information.
All researchers, practitioners, and students conducting or evaluating experiments in hydraulics will find this book useful.

Energy Dissipation in Hydraulic Structures
Recent advances in technology have permitted the construction of large dams, reservoirs and channels. This progress has necessitated the development of new design and construction techniques, particularly with the provision of adequate flood release facilities. Chutes and spillways are designed to spill large water discharges over a hydraulic structure (e.g. dam, weir) without major damage to the structure itself and...Hardback$27100Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 4-6 weeks -

Groundwater Management Practices
Groundwater is an indispensable resource in many parts of the world, where it supports domestic water supply, irrigated agriculture, and industry. Its increased, and often intensive, use during the last half century has created problems and raised concerns regarding the potential depletion of local aquifers, water quality degradation, and various geologic hazards such as land subsidence and sinkholes. Groundwater Management...Hardback$48200Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 4-6 weeks
