Features: This book comprehensively and systematically elaborates on: the fundamental principles of river hydraulics, the properties of sediment, settling velocity, initiation, sand wave movement, bedload and suspended load movement, as well as calculation methods, high-sediment-content water flow, and density current. The book emphasizes fundamental concepts and the integration of theory with practice, presenting content in an accessible manner for self-study. It also focuses on innovation, reflecting the latest major research findings both domestically and internationally. In addition to serving as a textbook for relevant majors in water conservancy institutions, it can also be used as a reference for scientific and technical personnel engaged in river sediment studies and river management engineering (including navigation channel regulation projects).
