Hydraulic engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering that is concerned with the flow and conveyance of fluids. This field is particularly relevant in the design of water and sewage systems, which are important aspects of urban planning. It applies the principles of fluid mechanics to design strategies for the efficient storage, collection, measurement, regulation, transport and use of water. The architectural planning and design of spillways and outlet paths for dams, canals, culverts, irrigation structures and cooling water facilities are under the purview of hydraulic engineering. The use of computer-aided design and computational fluid dynamics, as well as GPS mapping and laser-based surveying tools have brought tremendous advancements in hydraulic engineering. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to hydraulic engineering. The topics included in this book on hydraulic engineering are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. It attempts to assist those with a goal of delving into this field.
