This book presents key principles of the hydraulics of river
basins, with a unique focus on the interplay between stream flows
and sediment transport. Addressing a number of basic topics related
to the hydraulics of natural waterways, it above all emphasizes
applicative aspects in order to provide the reader with a solid
grasp of river engineering. The first chapter explores many of the
fixed base hydraulic topics that are normally neglected in
traditional texts, namely the effects on motion produced by the
vegetation and macroroughnesses that characterize many mountain
streams. The remaining chapters are devoted entirely to hydraulics
with mobile riverbeds and put particular emphasis on inhomogeneous
river channels. The book's approach goes beyond classical
treatments, so as to not only introduce readers to the fundamentals
of mobile riverbeds, but also enable today's river engineers to
successfully design and maintain natural riverbeds.
