Stochastic Hydraulics 2000 (Hardcover): Zhaoyin Wang, Shi-Xiong Hu Stochastic Hydraulics 2000 (Hardcover)
Zhaoyin Wang, Shi-Xiong Hu
R5,021 Discovery Miles 50 210 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

The applications of stochastic methods in design by reliability include the better utilisation of hydrological information. With statistical methods one can evaluate the safety component of hydraulic systems. Based on these, extra safety features can be added to ensure the reliable performance of an hydraulic system. One such example is the design of a dam, which features a number of random variables, each with a very distinct and quite different probability function. This book reports on developments in stochastic hydraulics across a wide range of applications, including river hydraulics, sediment transportation, waves and coastal processes, hydrology, hydraulic works and structure, and environmental hydraulics.

Hyperconcentrated Flow (Hardcover): Zhaohui Wan, Zhaoyin Wang Hyperconcentrated Flow (Hardcover)
Zhaohui Wan, Zhaoyin Wang
R4,939 Discovery Miles 49 390 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Considers hyperconcentrated flow, a phenomenon peculiar to the Yellow River Basin. The feasibility of using the potential for sediment carrying by hyperconcentrated flow can also be applied to topics such as hypertransport, debris flow and sediment releases from reservoirs.

River Morphodynamics and Stream Ecology of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (Paperback): Zhaoyin Wang, Zhiwei Li, Mengzhen Xu, Guoan Yu River Morphodynamics and Stream Ecology of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (Paperback)
Zhaoyin Wang, Zhiwei Li, Mengzhen Xu, Guoan Yu
R1,593 Discovery Miles 15 930 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book focuses on the river morphodynamics and stream ecology of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The objective of the book is to summarize and synthesize the recent studies based on field surveys undertaken in the period 2007-2014. This book was written to serve as a graduate-level text for a course in river dynamics and stream ecology and as a reference text for engineers and researchers engaged in hydropower engineering, fluvial geomorphology and aquatic ecology. The first two chapters serve as an introduction of geomorphological characteristics as well as uplift and its impact on river morphology of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Chapters 3-5 cover meandering rivers and cutoff, wetlands and wetland shrinkage,desertification and restoration strategies in the Sanjiangyuan region. Chapter 6 discusses the interaction between erosion and vegetation, and Chapter 7 characterizes the aquatic ecology of the Yarlung Tsangpo and the Sanjiangyuan region.
