| civil engineering water resources: Fluid Mechanics, Hydraulics, Hydrology and Water Resources for Civil Engineers Amithirigala Widhanelage Jayawardena, 2021-01-27 One of the core areas of study in civil engineering concerns water that encompasses fluid mechanics, hydraulics and hydrology. Fluid mechanics provide the mathematical and scientific basis for hydraulics and hydrology that also have added empirical and practical contents. The knowledge contained in these three subjects is necessary for the optimal and equitable management of this precious resource that is not always available when and where it is needed, sometimes with conflicting demands. The objective of Fluid Mechanics, Hydraulics, Hydrology and Water Resources for Civil Engineers is to assimilate these core study areas into a single source of knowledge. The contents highlight the theory and applications supplemented with worked examples and also include comprehensive references for follow-up studies. The primary readership is civil engineering students who would normally go through these core subject areas sequentially spread over the duration of their studies. It is also a reference for practicing civil engineers in the water sector to refresh and update their skills. |
| civil engineering water resources: Water Resource Systems Planning and Management Daniel P. Loucks, Eelco van Beek, 2017-03-02 This book is open access under a CC BY-NC 4.0 license. This revised, updated textbook presents a systems approach to the planning, management, and operation of water resources infrastructure in the environment. Previously published in 2005 by UNESCO and Deltares (Delft Hydraulics at the time), this new edition, written again with contributions from Jery R. Stedinger, Jozef P. M. Dijkman, and Monique T. Villars, is aimed equally at students and professionals. It introduces readers to the concept of viewing issues involving water resources as a system of multiple interacting components and scales. It offers guidelines for initiating and carrying out water resource system planning and management projects. It introduces alternative optimization, simulation, and statistical methods useful for project identification, design, siting, operation and evaluation and for studying post-planning issues. The authors cover both basin-wide and urban water issues and present ways of identifying and evaluating alternatives for addressing multiple-purpose and multi-objective water quantity and quality management challenges. Reinforced with cases studies, exercises, and media supplements throughout, the text is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in water resource planning and management as well as for practicing planners and engineers in the field. |

Tsihrintzis, 2016-12-01 Hydrology and water resources analysis can be looked at together, but this is the only book which presents the relevant material and which bridges the gap between scientific processes and applications in one text. New methods and programs for solving hydrological problems are outlined in a concise and readily accessible form. Hydrology and Water Resource Systems Analysis includes a number of illustrations and tables, with fully solved example problems integrated within the text. It describes a systematic treatment of various surface water estimation techniques; and provides detailed treatment of theory and applications of groundwater flow for both steady-state and unsteady-state conditions; time series analysis and hydrological simulation; floodplain management; reservoir and stream flow routing; sedimentation and erosion hydraulics; urban hydrology; the hydrological design of basic hydraulic structures; storage spillways and energy dissipation for flood control, optimization techniques for water management projects; and methods for uncertainty analysis. It is written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students and for practitioners. Hydrologists and water-related professionals will be helped with an unfamiliar term or a new subject area, or be given a formula, the procedure for solving a problem, or guidance on the computer packages which are available, or shown how to obtain values from a table of data. For them it is a compendium of hydrological practice rather than science, but sufficient scientific background is provided to enable them to understand the hydrological processes in a given problem, and to appreciate the limitations of the methods presented for solving it. |

| civil engineering water resources: Water-resources Engineering David A. Chin, 2020 Water resources engineers design systems to control the quantity, quality, timing, and distribution of water to support human habitation and the needs of the environment. Water supply and flood control systems are commonly regarded as essential infrastructure for developed areas, and as such water resources engineering is a core specialty area in civil engineering. Water resources engineering is also a specialty area in environmental engineering, particularly with regard to the design of water-supply systems, wastewater-collection systems, and water quality control in natural systems. Overview of book contents. The technical and scientific bases for most water resources applications are in the areas of hydraulics and hydrology, and this text covers these areas with depth and rigor. The fundamentals of closed-conduit open channel surface water hydrology, groundwater hydrology, and water resources planning and management are all covered in detail. Applications of these fundamentals include the design of water distribution systems, hydraulic structures, sanitary sewer systems, stormwater management systems, and water supply well fields. The design protocols for these systems are guided by the relevant ASCE, WEF, and AWWA manuals of practice, as well as USFHWA design guidelines for urban and transportation related drainage structures, and USACE design guidelines for hydraulic structures. The topics covered in this book constitute the technical background expected of water-resources engineers. This text is appropriate for undergraduate and first year graduate courses in hydraulics, hydrology, and water resources engineering. Practitioners will also find the material in this book to be a useful reference on appropriate design protocols-- |
