Hydrodynamics  

Description

The course focusses on the hydrodynamics of free surface flows and is aimed at providing theoretical and practical notions, also through numerical modelling and laboratory experiments, that are required for the assessment and mitigation of hydraulic risk and river engineering design. The course offers an overview of models adopted in environmental hydraulics and provides a detailed knowledge about steady open channel flow with fixed boundaries (gradually varied flow, the role of different control structures and discharge inflow/outflow) and gravity waves in channel flow, with specific reference to flood propagation. The course also provides the fundamentals of sediment transport and river morphodynamics.
