Course Description:

16-Civ-A5 Hydraulic Engineering

Dimensional analysis and hydraulic models. Application of continuity, momentum and energy principles. Steady, closed conduit flow in single pipes and pipe networks. Steady, open-channel flow under uniform and gradually varied conditions, control sections, hydraulic jumps, and energy dissipaters. Hydraulic transients; surges and water hammer in closed conduits, surface waves in open channels. Concepts and principles of turbo machinery, especially centrifugal pumps; similarity relations and cavitation; operation of pump-and-pipe systems. Introductory concepts of hydraulic structures, including environmental aspects of hydraulic works and water quality management.

This course offers professional engineers a vital opportunity to enhance their expertise in managing and controlling water resources. It also provides practical knowledge and advanced techniques for designing and analyzing hydraulic systems, crucial for infrastructure projects ranging from water supply and wastewater management to flood control and hydropower. By deepening your understanding of fluid mechanics, open channel flow, and hydraulic structures, you'll be better equipped to tackle complex engineering challenges and contribute to sustainable water resource management. Invest in your professional development and expand your capabilities in this essential field.

The distance education program works as follows:

Each course is 8-12 weeks in duration.
You will receive a set of notes each week covering the course material via the internet. In addition, you will receive practice problems and assignments very similar to the associations' past exams.
A one hour video-conference session will be conducted by your instructor each week. The objective of this session is to assist in solving the assignments as well as answer student questions that should be sent to instructor early enough prior to the meeting time. In addition with being able to communicate with the instructor, you will also be able to communicate with other students in the same class and watch their questions answered as well. A high speed internet connection is strongly recommended for this feature.
Each set of assignments must be completed and submitted by the indicated date and your completed assignment will be marked and returned by your instructor.
Upon completion of the assignments, you will be sent a final exam. It is recommended that you try to simulate the actual exam conditions (i.e., no aids and a time limit) when writing it. You will then submit this final exam for review and marking.
To gain the most from your course, it is highly recommended that you participate fully in all discussions and assignments. Please remember that each course has 8-12 weeks duration and set dates for assignments to be submitted and a set date to submit the final exam. You will be informed of these dates when you receive the course schedule.
