3.00 Credits
The physical and mathematical basis for steady and unsteady flow processes in hydraulic engineering, with emphasis on fluvial systems. Numerical procedures for gradually varied steady flow and rapidly varied unsteady flow will be covered with applications to floodplain delineations, flood routing, dam safety, and river restoration. Other applications may include the design of hydraulic structures such as culverts, stilling basins, spillways, levees, weirs, fish ladders, and retention/detention ponds. With laboratory. Prerequisites Civil and Environmental Engineering 12.
