Fluvial, Environmental and Coastal Developments in Hydraulic
Engineering contains the Proceedings of the International Workshop
on State-of-the-Art Hydraulic Engineering (16-19 February 2004,
Bari, Italy). The book is divided into four sections: -Air-water
flows / Transitional flows; -Stepped chute / Transitional flows;
-Environmental and coastal hydraulics with dispersion in estuaries
and jets, and -Transitional flows. In this volume the energy loss
of skimming flows is investigated systematically under a wide range
of discharges, channel slopes, step heights, and dam heights. It is
well known that in recent years environmental problems have an
increasing pivotal role. The section on environmental and coastal
hydraulics presents results on jet-wave interaction, which is still
rare in literature. It also includes an attempt to reproduce the
principal ocean circulation patterns by means of a numerical model,
and to validate this with field measurements, using a Vessel
Mounted Acoustic Doppler Profiler (VM-ADP). Other topics covered in
this section are (a) tidal bores, which have a significant impact
on estuarine systems, and (b) new fishway design and the effect of
fishways on the migration of aquatic animals, including a design
method for arranging the proposed fishway in the slit-type concrete
Sabo dam. Various types of flow conditions are formed in accordance
with inflow Froude number, boundary-layer development at inflow
section, aspect ratio, relative downstream depth, channel geometry,
Reynolds number, and air concentration at inflow section. As
systematical clarification of the transitional flows is most
significant for effective hydraulic design of hydraulic structures,
varioustypes of transitional flows are analyzed, and presented. The
volume is of special interest to scientists and students of
hydraulics and fluid mechanics, to engineers, and to specialists in
the field of environmental protection.
