Features: "Fluid Mechanics" is tailored to the characteristics of civil engineering, emphasizing the strengthening of theoretical foundations and focusing on cultivating students' abilities. The text is concise and rigorous, making it suitable for teaching. This textbook can also serve as a teaching resource for fluid mechanics in municipal, environmental, and hydraulic engineering programs, as well as the primary reference book for the National Registration Structural Engineer Fluid Mechanics Examination. This book is part of the "Five-Year Plan" National-Level Planning Textbooks for General Higher Education and is designed as the textbook for the Fluid Mechanics course (40–50 hours) in civil engineering programs. The book is divided into 11 chapters, covering main topics such as: Fluid Statics, Fluid Dynamics, Fundamentals of Fluid Dynamics, Dimensional Analysis and Similarity Principles, Fluid Resistance and Head Loss, Orifice, Nozzle Outflow, and Pressurized Pipe Flow, Open Channel Flow, Weir Flow, Seepage, and Fundamentals of One-Dimensional Gas Dynamics, etc.
