CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING HYDRAULICS IN CIVIL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING 5TH EDITION “Outstanding coverage of practical engineering applications that is accessible to students.” —John W. Davies, Coventry University, UK As hydraulics research continues to seek solutions to many pressing problems in water and environmental management, engineers and scientists face exciting and difficult challenges which will make the fullest demands on their skills. Now in its fifth edition, Hydraulics in Civil and Environmental Engineering combines thorough coverage of the Andrew Chadwick, John Morfett basic principles of civil engineering hydraulics with wide-ranging treatment of practical, real-world applications. and Martin Borthwick This classic text is carefully structured into two parts to address principles before moving on to more advanced topics. The first part focuses on fundamentals, including hydrostatics, hydrodynamics, pipe and open channel flow, wave theory, physical modelling, hydrology, and sediment transport. The second part illustrates the engineering applications of these fundamental principles to pipeline system design; hydraulic struc- tures; and river, canal, and coastal engineering—including up-to-date environmental implications. A chapter on computational hydraulics demonstrates the application of computational simulation techniques to modern design in a variety of contexts. This fifth edition includes substantive revisions of the chapters on hydraulic machines, flood hydrology, and computational modeling. New material has been added to the chapters on hydrostatics, principles of fluid flow, behaviour of real fluids, open channel flow, pressure surge in pipelines, wave theory, sediment transport, river engineering, and coastal engineering. This edition also contains the latest recommendations regarding climate change predictions, impacts, and adaptation measures. References have been updated throughout. Hydraulics in Civil and Environmental Engineering, Fifth Edition is an essential resource for students and practitioners of civil, environmental, and public health engineering, and associated disciplines. It is comprehensive, fully illustrated, and contains many worked examples. Spreadsheets and useful links to other web pages are available on an accom- panying website, and a solutions manual is available to lecturers.

To those who would be reading this book for the first time, we hope you enjoy it. You should find sufficient material to cover most first degree courses and useful information for a higher degree and for professional practice. The references and further reading lists are comprehensive and point the way to further study. The fifth edition has been extensively reviewed by a panel of ten experts drawn from across the world. It contains much of the material from the previous editions and includes substantive revisions of the chapters on hydraulic machines, flood hydrology and computational modelling. New material has also been added to the chapters on hydrostatics, principles of fluid flow, behaviour of real fluids, open channel flow, pressure surge in pipelines, wave theory, sediment transport, river engineering and coastal engineering. The latest recommendations regarding climate change predictions, impacts and adaptation measures have also been included. The chapter on water quality modelling has been removed to contain the size of the book. References have been updated throughout. Finally, we have a website (http://www.routledge.com/books/details/9780415306096/) which contains the solutions manual to the problems, some spreadsheets and links to other websites of interest. vii TThhiiss ppaaggee iinntteennttiioonnaallllyy lleefftt bbllaannkk acknowledgements We are most grateful to the individuals and organisations who contributed to the development of the book through its previous editions.
