Hydraulics, Hydrology and Environmental Engineering

Autor Simon A. Mathias
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 feb 2024
This textbook provides an excellent resource for engineering and science students to develop basic, intermediate and advanced level skills in hydraulics, hydrology and environmental engineering. Topics include open channel flow, ocean waves, kinematic wave modelling, flood forecasting, groundwater production, evapotranspiration, rainfall runoff modelling, cost benefit analysis, environmental evaluation, air quality control, carbon capture and storage, atmospheric dispersion, water pollution, water treatment, wastewater treatment, environmental impact assessment and uncertainty management. Hydrology and environmental engineering are treated as clear extensions of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics. Emphasis is placed on distinguishing between theoretical and empirical results. Written challenges are specified throughout the text to help readers derive important theoretical results for themselves. Each chapter includes a set of related practical problems with detailed worked solutions, many of which include short, self-contained MATLAB codes. The book provides a wealth of theoretical and practical exercises to aid teachers in planning innovative learning experiences for their students in class and at home. The book also offers a rich environment for students and researchers to practice mathematics and learn about the art of deriving analytical solutions in an environmental engineering context.

Notă biografică

Simon Mathias holds a M.Eng. degree in Civil Engineering from University College London, an M.Sc. degree in Water Resources, Technology and Management from the University of Birmingham, and a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from Imperial College London. He currently works as a Professor in Environmental Engineering for the Department of Engineering at Durham University. He has authored 76 scientific journal articles and has served as Associate Editor for the Journal of Hydrology, Transport in Porous Media, Hydrogeology Journal and the Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology. His research interests concern the development of mathematical models to describe movement of fluids and contaminants in porous media. He has worked on a wide range of different applications including groundwater recharge, carbon capture and storage, nutrient transport, and rainfall runoff modeling.
