For more than 25 years, the multiple editions of Hydrology & Hydraulic Systems have set the standard for a comprehensive, authoritative treatment of the quantitative elements of water resources development. The latest edition extends this tradition of excellence in a thoroughly revised volume that reflects the current state of practice in the field of hydrology. Widely praised for its direct and concise presentation, practical orientation, and wealth of example problems, Hydrology & Hydraulic Systems presents fundamental theories and concepts balanced with excellent coverage of engineering applications and design. The Fourth Edition features a major revision of the chapter on distribution systems, as well as a new chapter on the application of remote sensing and computer modeling to hydrology. Outstanding features of the Fourth Edition include . . . • More than 350 illustrations and 200 tables • More than 225 fully solved examples, both in FPS and SI units • Fully worked-out examples of design projects with realistic data • More than 500 end-of-chapter problems for assignment • Discussion of statistical procedures for groundwater monitoring in accordance with the EPA’s Unified Guidance • Detailed treatment of hydrologic field investigations and analytical procedures for data assessment, including the USGS acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) approach • Thorough coverage of theory and design of loose-boundary channels, including the latest concept of combining the regime theory and the power function laws

Fundamentals of Hydraulic Engineering Systems, Fourth Edition is a very useful reference for practicing engineers who want to review basic principles and their applications in hydraulic engineering systems. This fundamental treatment of engineering hydraulics balances theory with practical design solutions to common engineering problems. The author examines the most common topics in hydraulics, including hydrostatics, pipe flow, pipelines, pipe networks, pumps, open channel flow, hydraulic structures, water measurement devices, and hydraulic similitude and model studies. Chapters dedicated to groundwater, deterministic hydrology, and statistical hydrology make this text ideal for courses designed to cover hydraulics and hydrology in one semester.
A practical introduction on today's challenge of controlling and managing the water resources used by and affected by cities and urbanized communities. The book offers an integrated engineering approach, covering the spectrum of urban watershed management, urban hydraulic systems, and overall stormwater management. Each chapter concludes with helpful problems. Solutions Manual available to qualified professors and instructors upon request. Introduces the reader to two popular, non-proprietary computer-modeling pro-grams: HEC-HMS (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) and SWMM (U.S EPA).
This exciting new textbook introduces the concepts and tools essential for upper-level undergraduate study in water resources and hydraulics. Tailored specifically to fit the length of a typical one-semester course, it will prove a valuable resource to students in civil engineering, water resources engineering, and environmental engineering. It will also serve as a reference textbook for researchers, practicing water engineers, consultants, and managers. The book facilitates students' understanding of both hydrologic analysis and hydraulic design. Example problems are carefully selected and solved clearly in a step-by-step manner, allowing students to follow along and gain mastery of relevant principles and concepts. These examples are comparable in terms of difficulty level and content with the end-of-chapter student exercises, so students will become well equipped to handle relevant problems on their own. Physical phenomena are visualized in engaging photos, annotated equations, graphical illustrations, flowcharts, videos, and tables.
Details the design and process of water supply systems, tracing the progression from source to sink Organized and logical flow, tracing the connections in the water-supply system from the water’s source to its eventual use Emphasized coverage of water supply infrastructure and the design of water treatment processes Inclusion of fundamentals and practical examples so as to connect theory with the realities of design Provision of useful reference for practicing engineers who require a more in-depth coverage, higher level students studying drinking water systems as well as students in preparation for the FE/PE examinations Inclusion of examples and homework questions in both SI and US units
This text explores the laws governing the flow and storage of groundwater in aquifers and provides all the necessary tools to forecast the behavior of a regional aquifer system. 1979 edition.
The book titled Hydrology and Hydraulic Systems is divided into two broad sections. The first eleven chapters encompass hydrology while the rest of the chapters deal with hydraulics. Chapter 1 examines the demands of water for water supply, navigation, irrigation, generating electricity (hydropower) and recreation. Various aspects of the hydrologic cycle, such as precipitation, evaporation and transpiration and runoff, are included in chapter 2, chapter 3 and chapter 4, respectively. Blaney- Criddle method and Penman-Monteith method is included in chapter 3. Chapter 5, chapter 6 and chapter 7 deals with theory, development and application of groundwater and groundwater flow and include ways in which groundwater is contaminated and methods adopted to prevent the same. Chapter 8 includes the methods and procedures adopted for streamflow measurement. Chapter 10 deals with hydrographs. The statistical process and their applications are discussed in this chapter. Chapter 11 discusses the extremities related to water flow- drought and flood; graphical, analytical, and empirical approaches for analyzing floods are covered, in addition to peak flow and peak snowmelt discharge. The rest of the book deals with applied hydraulics. Chapter 12 covers the flow problems, and the three basic equations, namely, the energy equation, the continuity equation, the momentum equation. Chapter 13 includes hydraulic structures. Dams, spillways, flumes, weirs, and other structures that are used for measuring and controlling the flow are described in this chapter. Chapter 14 discusses the conveyance system in detail. The idea of combining the power laws and the regime theory is introduced in the chapter. In addition to this, the concept of hydraulic jumps is incorporated in this chapter. Chapter 15 is all about the water distribution system. Chapter 16 covers all the aspects of the urban drainage system, starting from its types to layouts, to designing a drainage system, to the NRCS (SCS) TR-55 Method. Other drainage systems such as agricultural, surface, sub-surface and roadway drainage systems are discussed in chapter 17. Lastly, chapter 18 includes the utilization of remote sensing and computer modeling and software in hydrology. The concept of integrating hydrological methods and GIS is included in this chapter.
