Features: The book is divided into fourteen chapters. Chapters 1-4 cover the basic knowledge of hydraulics, integrating the content and methods of fluid mechanics to strengthen the fundamental theories of hydraulics. Chapters 5-11 introduce the main professional knowledge of hydraulics and its recent developments in areas such as steady and unsteady flow in pipe and open-channel flow, outflow from weirs and sluices, flood discharge and energy dissipation, and seepage. Chapters 12-14 briefly discuss emerging disciplines such as high-speed flow and computational hydraulics, and predict the near-term development trends of hydraulics in terms of theoretical research, mathematical models, experimental and applied research. Within its limited scope, the book comprehensively presents the main content and recent developments of hydraulics, serving as a reference book for professionals engaged in scientific and technological management or comprehensive technical work. It is also a convenient and efficient reference for water conservancy and hydropower professionals.
