Overview
- Comprehensive coverage of the numerical algorithms applied in open channel modelling, including the standard approaches as well as new schemes developed by the author
- Step-by-step development from the basic physical equations to the solution of practical problems
- Provides new insights into numerical solution of some classical problems of open channel hydraulics, e.g. steady varied flow in a channel of arbitrary geometry.
- Special attention paid to the accuracy analysis of the algorithms allowing for better interpretation of the results obtained with simulation software
- Includes an in-depth analysis of the simplified flood routing models and their properties

Reviews
From the reviews:
“Numerical Modeling in Open Channel Hydraulics is mainly addressed to students, scientists and engineers involved in modeling techniques of flow or pollutant transport in rivers. The main goal of this useful and interesting book is to present and explain all important issues connected with one-dimensional numerical modeling in open channel hydraulics … . The systematic and detailed description of the problems covered by the book is invaluable for all people involved professionally, or wishing to be, in open channel hydraulics.” (Adam Piotrowski, Pure and Applied Geophysics, Vol. 168, 2011)Authors and Affiliations
