PRACTICAL HYDRAULICS
To use water wisely requires a basic understanding of hydraulics
-
how
wafer is stored, pumped and controlled in pipes and channels. Hydraulics
is no longer just the domain of engineers but an essential tool for
:
environmentalists, geographers, agriculturalists and planners
-
all of whom
are involved in making important decisions about how water resources are
allocated and managed.
Hydraulics has a reputation for being a complex, even intimidating
subject but it need not be so. This fully revised second edition of Practical
Hydraulics recognises that not everyone has strong maths skills or wants
to be an engineer. It breaks with the tradition of a maths-based approach
by adopting a descriptive style with many illustrations and examples to
help the reader develop a sound understanding of how water behaves in
practice. It also introduces numbers should the reader wish to go further.
Melvyn Kay has over
25
years experience teaching hydraulics to students
from non-engineering backgrounds, therefore Practical Hydraulics will
appeal to a wide range of professionals and undergraduate students who
want a thorough yet easy-to-understand introduction to the subject. It will
also suit young engineers who are looking for an alternative approach to the
more traditional mathematical texts.
Melvyn Kay, formerly Senior Lecturer in Hydraulics and Irrigation at
Cranfield University, UK, currently practices as a consultant in irrigation
water management.
