The lattice-Boltzmann (LB) method is a way of performing simulations of fluid flow and related transport processes, and in this monograph, we argue that it is a useful addition to more mainstream computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods based on finite volumes, finite differences or finite elements. There are many reasons for using the LB method, and also many reasons for not using it. The usefulness of the LB method largely depends on the specific application, including the level of detail one is interested in resolving through simulation. It also depends on the availability of computational resources.An understanding of the LB method, its implementation in computer code, as well as demon

This new IAHR Book provides a resource for understanding the effluent discharge mechanisms and the approaches for modelling them. It bridges the gap between academia and industry with a focused approach in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modelling and providing practical examples and applications. With a detailed discussion on performing numerical modelling of effluent discharges in various ambient waters and with different discharge configurations, the book covers the application of OpenFOAM in effluent discharge modelling.

This book is a collection of highly refined articles on historical water projects and traditional water technologies of international interest in the Asian region, addressing information on past water projects (mostly before the 20th century) in the Asian regions that are technically and culturally of interest and educationally valuable.

Recent advances in technology have permitted the construction of large dams, reservoirs and channels. This progress has necessitated the development of new design and construction techniques, particularly with the provision of adequate flood release facilities. Chutes and spillways are designed to spill large water discharges over a hydraulic structure (e.g. dam, weir) without major damage to the structure itself and to its environment. At the hydraulic structure, the flood waters rush as an open channel flow or free-falling jet, and it is essential to dissipate a very signifi cant part of the flow kinetic energy to avoid damage to the hydraulic structure and its surroundings. Energy dissipa

Large-Eddy Simulation (LES), which is an advanced eddy-resolving method for calculating turbulent flows, is used increasingly in Computational Fluid Dynamics, also for solving hydraulics and environmental flow problems. The method has generally great potential and is particularly suited for problems dominated by large-scale turbulent structures. This book gives an introduction to the LES method specially geared for hydraulic and environmental engineers. Compared with existing books on LES it is less theoretically and mathematically demanding and hence easier to follow, and it covers special features of flows in water bodies and summarizes the experience gained with LES for calculating such f

This book presents a cutting-edge approach to understanding overtopping hydraulics under negative freeboard of earthen levees, and to the study of levee reinforcing methods. This approach combines a soil erosion test, a full-scale laboratory overtopping hydraulics test, and numerical modelling for turbulent overtopping hydraulics. It provides an analysis that integrates the mechanical and hydraulic processes governing levee overtopping occurrences and engineering approaches to reinforce overtopped levees.

This Water Monograph shows the benefit of using relaxed variational methods for the water waves problem. It illustrates the advantage of using a variational principle involving as many dependent variables as possible. Its primary purpose here is to provide a generalized framework for deriving model equations for water waves. This methodology is elucidated through a range of examples, a number of which are entirely novel.

This Water Monograph is written in response to the IAHR call for “science-informed action!” after unprecedented flood flow peaks worldwide in July 2021. It is therefore directed to the practising hydraulic engineer, who bridges the interface between writing reports and active management of post-disaster reconstruction. In particular it is aimed at codifiers, experienced supervising engineers in the often-overlooked role of revising legal Codes of Practice to guide practising engineers, when it becomes apparent (as now) that existing Codes are obsolescent and should be treated as such until updates have been issued.

This IAHR Water Monograph aims at providing a guidance to professionals, researchers and policy makers for assessing observed and projected impact of climate variability and change on the hydro-systems and to adapt the practice of engineering design of hydraulic infrastructures and water resources management to such changes. It will present an overview of methods for the analysis of non-stationary time series and of the estimate of the hydrological and hydraulic design variables as precipitation, floods, droughts, sea level and storm surges by relaxing the hypothesis of stationarity of the climate.
