Environmental Hydraulics : Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Environmental Hydraulics, Hong Kong, China, 15-18 December, Hardcover by Lee, J. H. (EDT), ISBN 9058090353, ISBN-13 9789058090355, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Contains ten lectures and some 120 contributions from 20 countries presented at the December 1998 symposium. Some of the latest advances in hydrodynamic and water quality modeling, turbulent transport and mixing processes, and stratified flow are reviewed, as well as examples of sediment-environment interactions and engineering applications. The latter involve in particular problems related to sustainable development in the Pearl River Delta including the Hong Kong waters, and on the Yangtze River. The volume also explores the complementary role of numerical modeling and experimental/field studies in the solution of practical engineering problems. No subject index.
