Download or read book Hydraulics and Pneumatics in Environmental Engineering written by S. David Graber and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-12-24 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bring the tools of hydraulics and pneumatics to bear on key environmental challenges Hydraulics and pneumatics are essential tools in environmental engineering. Any area of engineering which deals with harnessing, managing, and controlling fluid and flow will find hydraulics and pneumatics indispensable, and environmental engineering is no exception. These two subjects, however, are rarely integrated in standard teaching and research resources, and there exists an urgent need for a work which brings them together. Hydraulics and Pneumatics in Environmental Engineering meets this need with a thorough, accessible overview of this vital subject. Written for advanced environmental engineering students and assuming a sound undergraduate background in fluid mechanics, this book otherwise provides everything needed to bring hydraulic and pneumatic tools and principles to bear on environmental engineering problems. With civil and environmental engineering only becoming more essential as communities grow and the challenges of climate change mount, the next generation of engineers will be amply served by this text. Hydraulics and Pneumatics in Environmental Engineering readers will also find: An emphasis on practical applications, often under-valued in civil engineering courses Detailed discussion of topics including Navier-Stokes, G-Value, incompressible flow, and many more Diagrams and figures throughout to illustrate key points Hydraulics and Pneumatics in Environmental Engineering is ideal for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in civil and environmental engineering, as well as for researchers and practicing engineers in need of a reference.

Download or read book Water Hammer written by Bruce Sharp and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1995-12-01 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water hammer, or the study of fluid transient behaviour, is one of the most common problems in the water engineering community. This book covers the many causes and solutions in a practical way and is an essential reference for all those concerned with the flow of liquids, not just water, in pipe systems. It follows on from the authors' previous monograph on the problems and solutions of water hammer and presents common problems in the form of case studies.This is an interesting and useful read for practising engineers working in this area and it will enable them to make comparisons with their own problems. Also the practical nature of the book makes it useful for civil engineering departmental libraries and departments where hydraulic design is taught.

Download or read book Hydraulics of Pipeline Systems written by Bruce E. Larock and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1999-09-28 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of its kind, this modern, comprehensive text covers both analysis and design of piping systems. The authors begin with a review of basic hydraulic principles, with emphasis on their use in pumped pipelines, manifolds, and the analysis and design of large pipe networks. After the reader obtains an understanding of how these principles are implemented in computer solutions for steady state problems, the focus then turns to unsteady hydraulics. These are covered at three levels:

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... the book is at its best in the design and analysis sections and could stand on these alone as a well-stocked handbook with copious references for further study," commented the Journal of the National Water Council after publication of an earlier edition of Pipeline Design for Water Engineers. This classic monograph has been revised and updated to take account of new developments in the field. Recent research in cavitation and flow control has prompted additional sections to be added. There are also new sections on supports to exposed pipes and secondary stress. Additional references and a new layout make up this edition. Some sections appearing in previous editions, noteably on pipe network systems analysis and optimization have been ommitted as they were considered more appropriate in the author's parallel book ``Pipeflow Analysis'' (Developments in Water Science, 19).

Book excerpt: "This text presents basic aspects and underlying principles of the classical atomistic theory: the electric, magnetic and optical properties of matters as formulated by H.A. Lorentz. Taking the theory one logical step further, Rosenfeld also investigates the atomic structure of matter to determine why some substances conduct electricity well or become strongly magnetic, while others do not. A brief summary of the discoveries that have led to the modern view of the electrical constitution of atoms begins the book. Subsequent chapters make a careful derivation of Maxwell's equations in matter by identifying electromagnetic field averages, and averages of charge and current density. Systems of charged particles, the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian equations and Larmor's theorem are discussed. Diamagnetism, paramagnetism and ferromagnetism are investigated in terms of the behavior of atoms in an external magnetic field. Rosenfeld next treats the theories of electric polarization and of optical dispersion, with emphasis on radiation damping, scattering of light and critical opalescence. The final chapter discusses the rigorous theory of dispersion."- Publisher.
