Book Description
Excerpt from Treatise on Hydraulics Since the publication of the first edition of this treatise, in 1889, many advances have been made in Hydraulics. Some of these have been briefly noted in later editions, but to properly record and correlate them it has now become necessary to rewrite and reset the book. In so doing the author has endeavored to incorporate other features that have been suggested to him by teachers and engineers, to whom he here expresses his thanks. All of these suggestions could not be followed, foi thereby the work would have been expanded to two volumes. Indeed the question as to what should be left out has often been a more difficult one than that as to what should be inserted, and the author has made the decision from the point of view of the probable benefit that may accrue to students in engineering colleges and to engineers in ordinary conditions of practice. The same plan of arrangement as in former editions has been followed, but two new chapters have been added, one on Hydraulic Instruments and Observations which treats of the methods of measuring pressures and velocities, and another on Pumps and Pumping in which the various machines for raising water are discussed from a hydraulic point of view. Among the new topics introduced in the other chapters may be noted the vortex whirl that occurs in emptying a vessel, new coefficients for dams and for steel and wood pipes, the loss of head in pipes due to curvature, branched circuits or diversions in pipe systems, the influence of piers in producing backwater, canals for water-power plants, discharge curves for rivers, the tidal and the land bore, water-supply estimates, water hammer in pipes, the stability of a ship, and hydraulic-electric analogies. Many new examples and problems are given and in these the author has endeavored not only to exemplify the theory of the subject, but also to illustrate the conditions of actual practice.

An Introduction To Hydraulics Of Fine Sediment Transport
Author: Ashish J Mehta
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Company
ISBN: 9814449504
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1060
Book Description
This book presents observations on the phenomena of fine sediment transport and their explanations under process-related divisions such as flocculation, erosion, and deposition.The text is a compilation of the author's lecture notes from nearly four decades of teaching and guiding graduate students in civil and coastal engineering. Illustrations of fine sediment transport processes and their complexities given in the book are taken from field and laboratory-based observations by the author and his students, as well as numerous investigators.The wide-ranging composition of particles (of inorganic and organic matter), their universal presence and their complex interactions with hydraulic forces make this branch of science a difficult one to deal with in a single treatise. It is therefore essential to study fine sediment transport as an independent subject rather than cover it in no more than a single chapter as many texts on coarse sediment transport have done.Even though the entire coverage is “introductory”, the twelve chapters collectively include more material than what can be reasonably dealt with in a one semester, three-credit course.The book includes an extensive description of the components of fine-grained — especially cohesive — sediment transport. It covers the development of the subject in scientific and engineering applications mainly from the 1950s to its present state. Solved examples and chapter-end exercises are also included.This text is aimed at senior civil engineering undergraduates and graduate students who, in the normal course of their study, seldom come across the subject of fine sediment transport in their curricula. Interested students should have a basic understanding of the mechanics of fluid flow and open channel hydraulics.

Pages : 560
Book Description
Excerpt from A Treatise on Hydraulics: For the Use of Engineers Examples, showing the manner of effecting such applications, serve as a commentary on the rules, and have, moreover, enabled me to make mention of the cases which most frequently occur in practice. Engineers occupied exclusively in their department for a long series of years, may have lost the ready use of formulae, and may find themselves under temporary embarrassment as to the acceptation to be given to some of the characters employed in them; one example, on a problem analogous to that which they desire to solve, will free them from the embarrassment. It may further be said, on the use which I have often made of algebraic expressions, what has already been said on the occa sion of another of my works, nearly of the nature of the present, that in using a language unknown to many persons employed in constructions, I make my work less generally useful. I have noticed some of the advantages of this language, and I do not believe that in sacrificing them I should gain rather than lose in respect to utility. I will also remark, that if any one would confine himself to what is strictly necessary, the use of this treatise only demands an ability to read a most elementary alge braie formula, and to perform by logarithms the operations which it indicates. But this knowledge is indispensable to the solution of questions in hydraulics: let it be required for example, to fix the diameter of a series of pipes designed to convey a given volume of water; it would be necessary, among other operations, to extract the fifth root of the square of that volume; and such an extraction can 'scarcely be effected otherwise than by loga rithms.
