Covering all the fundamental topics in hydraulics and hydrology,
this textbook is an accessible, thorough and trusted introduction
to the subject. The text builds confidence by encouraging readers
to work through examples, try simple experiments and continually
test their own understanding as the book progresses. This hands-on
approach aims to show students just how interesting hydraulics and
hydrology is, as well as providing an invaluable reference resource
for practising engineers. There are numerous worked examples,
self-test and revision questions to help students solve problems
and avoid mistakes, and a question and answer feature to keep
students thinking and engaging with the text. The text is essential
reading for undergraduates from pre-degree through all
undergraduate level courses and for practising engineers around the
world. New to this Edition: - Updates on climate change, flood risk
management, flood alleviation, design considerations when
developing greenfield sites, and the design of storm water sewers -
A new chapter on sustainable storm water management (referred to as
sustainable drainage systems (SUDS) in the UK) including their
advantages and disadvantages, the design of components such as
permeable and porous pavements, swales, soakaways and detention
ponds and flood routing through storage reservoirs. Accompanying
online resources for this title can be found at
bloomsburyonlineresources.com/understanding-hydraulics. These
resources are designed to support teaching and learning when using
this textbook and are available at no extra cost.
