In a world with rising sea levels due to climate change, the ability to accurately predict their behavior has a direct impact on the design, construction and protection of the surrounding infrastructure. Free-Surface Flow: Shallow-Water Waves presents a novel approach that aids at representing this phenomenon.

Free-Surface Flow: Shallow-Water Waves bridges the gap between traditional books on open-channel flow and analytical fluid mechanics. Shallow-water theory is established by formal integration of the Navier-Stokes equations, and boundary resistance is developed by a rigorous construction of turbulent flow models for channel flow. In addition, the book presents a comprehensive description of shallow-water waves by mathematical analysis. These methods form the foundation for understanding flood routing, sudden water releases, dam and levee break, sluice gate dynamics, and wave-current interaction

Bridges the gap between traditional books on open-channel flow and analytical fluid mechanics
Presents a comprehensive description of shallow-water waves by characteristic and bi-characteristic analysis
Provides an abundance of equations and workout examples
