Based on a highly successful course for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students, this major new text book provides a comprehensive treatment of hydraulic structures, including their geotechnical aspects. Part 1 provides thorough coverage of dam engineering and related topics and Part II discusses a wide range of other hydraulic structures from river engineering, to hydroelectric power development, to coastal engineering. The main objective of the book is to build on an assumed background in hydraulics, soil mechanics, engineering materials and some knowledge of engineering hydrology, to provide not a monograph or design manual but an essential teaching text. Worked examples supplement the main text, and extensive lists of references conclude each chapter. Its closely knit team of authors are led by Professor Novak, an eminent hydraulic engineer. Readership - students of hydraulics; research and professional engineers.
