Synopsis
This systematic and integrated approach to the morphological and engineering problems of the alluvial river, initially presents hydrodynamic theories, measurements and model techniques; further it gives a comprehensive and systematic discussion of the possibilities of tackling river de? ciences. Whilst the majority of the examples and cases cited by the authors are drawn from their experience with the Rivers Niger, Magdalena and Rhine, their aim is to give a comprehensive treatment of river engineering in general, rather than detailed information on any particular river system. The work derives from the experience of the authors at the Rijkswaterstaat (Public Works Department), Delft Hydraulics Laboratory, Delft University of Technology and Netherlands Engineering Consultants NEDECO. The ? rst four parts of the book cover the theoretical bases of river hydraulics, river surveys and river models, whilst the last part applies this theory and deals with the practical problems encountered by the engineer in designing and executing river works.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture
This book is intended both for the practising river engineer who, with its help, will be able to tackle problems giving all aspects the correct weights - without overlooking any of these aspects - and for the post-graduate student.
The book is divided into five parts. The first part presents a general introduction to river engineering. The next three parts deal with the basic subjects of river hydraulics, river surveys and river models. The final part deals with their applications. It should be stressed that most benefit will be obtained by studying the book as a whole, not just turning a particular section.
Extensive use has been made of research work published by experts in many countries.
