Steam Condeste Hydraulic Trap

This volume conveys a broad understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of various hydraulic structures. Emphasis is given to the analysis and design of different types of hydraulic structures. Various applications of hydraulic structure analysis are also incorporated. This book introduces advanced ideas on hydraulic structures: theory and applications to the international community.

This book delves into discussions central to hydraulic structures and research in the realm of hydrodynamics. Hydraulic structures stand as pivotal components within civil engineering and construction, playing a safeguarding role for structures vital to human development. Examples encompass the Hoover Dam in the USA, the Three Gorges Dam in China and the Almendra Dam in Salamanca, Spain. Monitoring the safety and ensuring the structural stability of hydraulic structures has long remained a focal point within hydraulic engineering. Factors affecting the safety of hydraulic structures, water pressure, and loading demand meticulous attention. The stability of structures and materials experiences degradation due to hydraulic impact and long-term corrosion, compromising the safety of hydraulic structures. The inability to adequately support and release water during flood season or flooding can result in irreversible damage. The book aims to furnish global civil engineers with cutting-edge research and engineering examples pertaining to the safety and hydrodynamics of hydraulic structures, with a particular emphasis on dam safety and inspection. It endeavors to inspire novel insights and research avenues for the readers and provide some experiences and results for disciplinary research in this field. The topics of this book include but are not limited to the following:

1-MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTS AND USE / 2-BASIC CONCEPTS OF HYDRAULICS

This book reports on cutting-edge research and technical achievements in the field of hydraulic drives. The chapters, selected from contributions presented at the International Scientific-Technical Conference on Hydraulic and Pneumatic Drives and Controls, NSHP 2020, held on October 21-23, 2020, in Trzebieszowice, Poland, cover a wide range of topics such as theoretical advances in fluid technology, work machines in mining, construction, marine and manufacturing industry, and practical issues relating to the application and operation of hydraulic drives.
