Curriculum
PERCORSO COMUNE
Period
Annual (28/09/2020 - 14/06/2021)
Prerequisites
Fundamentals of calculus (limits, derivatives, integrals), mechanics (equilibrium, energy, conservation principles), vector calculus.
Learning outcomes
The Course teaches the fundamental aspects of hydraulics, in order to tackle the main hydraulic issues in the coputation of pipe and open-channel flows in steady-state conditions.
Course contents
The Course plans to teach the fundamentals in hydraulics which are needed to tackle the main practical problems in pipe and open-channel flows.
In this frame, the Course consists of two parts: in the introductory part, all the basic knowledge in fluid dynamics and in the hydraulics of pipe flows is explained; in the second part, the focus is on open-channel hydraulics and on the computation of the free-surface elevation in steady state conditions.
Teaching methods
Lectures, practical classes and laboratory classes
