Synopsis of Course Contents This course is geared towards the application of hydraulics. It starts with
the development of the boundary layer in laminar and turbulent flows. It
moves to the study of unsteady flows in pipelines and analysis. The
phenomenon of sediment transport is discussed followed by the wave
theory-classification and application. Finally, the concept of computational
