Rivers, Streams, and Canals
3-4
units
Time: see axess.stanford.edu
The movement of water through natural and engineered channels, streams, and rivers. Equations and theory (mass, momentum, and energy equations) for steady and unsteady descriptions of the flow. Design of flood-control and canal systems. Flow controls such as weirs and sluice gates; gradually varied flow; Saint-Venant equations and flood waves; and method of characteristics. Open channel flow laboratory experiments: controls such as weirs and gates, gradually varied flow, and waves. Students taking lab section register for 4 units.
