Shallow Water Hydraulics by Oscar Castro-OrgazEnglish | PDF,EPUB | 2019 | 572 Pages | ISBN : 303013072X | 71.66 MB
This book presents the theory and computation of open channel flows, using detailed analytical, numerical and experimental results. The fundamental equations of open channel flows are derived by means of a rigorous vertical integration of the RANS equations for turbulent flow. In turn, the hydrostatic pressure hypothesis, which forms the core of many shallow water hydraulic models, is scrutinized by analyzing its underlying assumptions.
