River Hydraulics
Author: U. S. Army Corps of Engineers
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781410218698
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
This manual presents the techniques and procedures that are used to investigate and resolve river engineering and analysis issues and the associated data requirements. It also provides guidance for the selection of appropriate methods to be used for planning and conducting the studies. Documented herein are past experiences that provide valuable information for detecting and avoiding problems in planning, performing, and reporting future studies. The resolution of river hydraulics issues always requires prediction of one or more flow parameters; be it stage (i.e., water surface elevation), velocity, or rate of sediment transport. This manual presents pragmatic methods for obtaining data and performing the necessary computations; it also provides guidance for determining the components of various types of studies.

Acoustics, Aeroacoustics and Vibrations
Author: Fabien Anselmet
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119178398
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 529
Book Description
This didactic book presents the main elements of acoustics, aeroacoustics and vibrations. Illustrated with numerous concrete examples linked to solid and fluid continua, Acoustics, Aeroacoustics and Vibrations proposes a selection of applications encountered in the three fields, whether in room acoustics, transport, energy production systems or environmental problems. Theoretical approaches enable us to analyze the different processes in play. Typical results, mostly from numerical simulations, are used to illustrate the main phenomena (fluid acoustics, radiation, diffraction, vibroacoustics, etc.).

Pages : 438
Book Description
Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

Mathematical Modelling of Sediment Transport and Deposition in Reservoirs - Guidelines and Case Studies / Modélisation Mathématique du Transport et des Dépôts de Sédiments dans les Réservoirs - Lignes Directrices et Études de Cas
Author: Cigb Icold

ISBN: 1000383512
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
As reservoir sedimentation has proven to be a serious problem in South Africa, research in this field has been ongoing for more than 70 years. This publication emanates from extensive research which has been undertaken over the past 30 years with the support of the South African Department of Water and Sanitation as well as the South African Water Research Commission. A great deal of information has fortunately also been obtained from China. Given the universal nature of hydraulic formulae it is not surprising, yet gratifying, that Chinese and South African data generally conform to the same mathematical relationships. This indicates that these relationships should be applicable in other countries as well. Much of the information contained here has been condensed from a more comprehensive publication. This ICOLD Bulletin follows on Bulletin 115 “Dealing with reservoir sedimentation”, which gave guidelines for management of reservoirs to limit sedimentation. The guidelines on mathematical modelling of sediment transport dynamics in reservoirs in this document can be used during the planning and design of new dams, as well as for the management of existing dams. Comme la sédimentation dans les réservoirs s'est avérée être un problème sérieux en Afrique du Sud, la recherche dans ce domaine est en cours depuis plus de 70 ans. Cette publication émane de la recherche étendue qui a été menée au cours des 30 dernières années avec l'appui du ministère sud-africain de l’eau et de l’assainissement, ainsi que de la commission sud-africaine de recherche sur l'eau. Un grand nombre d'informations ont également été obtenues de la part de la Chine. Étant donné le caractère universel de formules hydrauliques, il n'est pas surprenant, mais très gratifiant, que les données chinoises et sud-africaines se conforment généralement aux mêmes relations mathématiques. Ceci indique que ces relations devraient être applicables dans d'autres pays également. Une grande partie de l'information contenue ici a été condensée à partir d'une publication plus complète. Ce bulletin CIGB fait suite au bulletin 115 "Traité sur la sédimentation dans les réservoirs", qui a donné des directives pour la gestion des réservoirs en vue de limiter la sédimentation. Les directives sur la modélisation mathématique de la dynamique de transport des sédiments dans les réservoirs de ce présent document peuvent être utilisées lors de la planification et la conception de nouveaux barrages et pour la gestion des barrages existants.
