About This Book

This book covers fluid dynamics and fluvial processes, including basics applicable to open channel flow followed by turbulence characteristics related to sediment-laden flows. It presents well-balanced exposure of physical concepts, mathematical treatments, validation of the models/theories, and experimentations using modern electronic gadgets within the scope. In addition, it explores fluid motions, sediment-fluid interactions, erosion and scouring, sediment suspension and bed load transportation, image processing for particle dynamics, and various problems of applied fluid mechanics in natural sciences.

Features:

  • Gives comprehensive treatment on fluid dynamics and fluvial process from fundamentals to advanced level applications in one volume
  • Presents knowledge on sediment transport and its interaction with turbulence
  • Covers recent methodologies in the study of turbulent flow theories with verification of laboratory data collected by ADV, PIV, URS, LDA, and imaging techniques, and field data collected by MMB and S4 current meters
  • Explores the latest empirical formulae for the estimations of bed load, saltation, suspension, and bedform migration
  • Contains theory to experimentations with field practices with comprehensive explanations and illustrations

This book is aimed at senior undergraduates, engineering and applied science postgraduate and research students working in mechanical, civil, geo-sciences, and chemical engineering departments pertaining to fluid mechanics, hydraulics, sediment transportation, and turbulent flows.
