Description

An applications-oriented text/disk package that explores open-channel flow with a focus on water supply, hydropower, flood control, drainage, navigation and so on. Both steady and unsteady flows are discussed in detail, with an emphasis throughout on modern methods of analysis suitable for computer solution. The package is intended for hydrologists and civil engineers.
