The state-of-the-art in fluvial hydrodynamics can be examined only through a careful exploration of the theoretical development and applied engineering technology. The book is primarily focused, since most up-to-date research findings in the field are presented, on the research aspects that involve a comprehensive knowledge of sediment dynamics in turbulent flows. It begins with the fundamentals of hydrodynamics and particle motion followed by turbulence characteristics related to sediment motion. Then, the sediment dynamics is analysed from a classical perspective by applying the mean bed shear approach and additionally incorporating a statistical description for the role of turbulence. The work finally examines the local scour problems at hydraulic structures and scale models. It is intended to design as a course textbook in graduate / research level and a guide for the field engineers as well, keeping up with modern technological developments. Therefore, as a simple prerequisite, th

Amazing book! Great for anyone who has an interest in historic dyeing. Humans are social by nature of their very biology, says Des Pres, and this is perhaps our main hope in this century. I read this book many years ago, when it was newly published. Very interesting story of one man's dream and how he made it reality. It is my belief that this gentleman, who was an English professor, not a historian, did more to change what I have always thought were negative, hurtful and incorrect ideas ---see Bruno Bettleheim et al ---of what constitutes a survivor. But in the early 1900s, Connecticut yankee Lake seemed at least as likely to earn the soubriquet. Solid, but a missed opportunity nonetheless.. Lots of info about different dyestuffs by color. He also makes it clear that all the survivors did not survivors. An immense accomplishment.. Des Pres explodes the myths about the Jews going to their deaths "like sheep;" of survivors saving their own lives by becoming amoral; of those who lived su
