Turbulence in River and Maritime Hydraulics
Understanding of the role of turbulence in controlling transport processes is of paramount importance for the preservation and protection of aquatic ecosystems, the minimization of the deleterious consequences of anthropogenic activity, and the successful sustainable development of river and maritime areas. In this context, the present Special Issue collects 15 papers which provide a representation of the present understanding of turbulent processes and their effects in river and maritime environments. The presented collection of papers is not exhaustive, but it highlights the key priority areas and knowledge gaps in this field of research. The published papers present the state-of-the-art knowledge of complex environmental flows which are useful for researchers and practitioners. The paper contents are an overview of some recent topics of research and an exposure of the current and future challenges associated with these topics.
Hydroinformatics, Proceedings Of The 6th International Conference (In 2 Volumes, With Cd-rom)
Hydroinformatics addresses cross-disciplinary issues ranging from technological and sociological to more general environmental concerns, including an ethical perspective. It covers the application of information technology in the widest sense to problems of the aquatic environment.This two-volume publication contains about 250 high quality papers contributed by authors from over 50 countries. The proceedings present many exciting new findings in the emerging subjects, as well as their applications, such as: data mining, data assimilation, artificial neural networks, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms and genetic programming, chaos theory and support vector machines, geographic information systems and virtual imaging, decision support and management systems, Internet-based technologies.This book provides an excellent reference to researchers, graduate students, practitioners, and all those interested in the field of hydroinformatics.

Environment and Ecology in the Mediterranean Region
The Mediterranean Basin with its mountainous shores, high biodiversity and spectacular scenery is located at the intersection of Africa and Eurasia. Through the 8000 years of human development in this area, there have been tremendous changes in its history and biogeography. Approximately 300 million people live here today. Although the evergreen maquis, vineyards, olive plantations and natural woodlands cover the lands all over the basin, it is facing severe destruction of habitats due to deforestation, intensive grazing, fires, and in particular, a severe coastal degradation due to infrastructure development, which is changing the landscape. Both the historical heritage and geography of the land is facing a great threat due to urbanisation and fragmentation. Time has come for its inhabitants to weigh their impact on its ecogeography in order to save the biodiversity as well as the history of the basin. This book synthesises the knowledge from different disciplines so as to increase awareness among the humans in the basin.
River Flow 2022
River Flow 2022 includes the keynote lecture and contributed papers presented at River Flow 2022, the 11th International Conference on Fluvial Hydraulics (8-10 November 2022, Kingston and Ottawa, Canada; held virtually). River Flow 2022 provides an overview of the latest experimental, theoretical and computational findings on fundamental river flow and transport processes, river morphology and morphodynamics, while covering also issues related to the effects of hydraulic structures on flow regime, river morphology and ecology; sustainable river engineering practices (including stream restoration and re-naturalization); and effects of climate change including extreme flood events. The book presents the state-of-the-art in river research and engineering, and is aimed at academics and practitioners in hydraulics, hydrology and environmental engineering.
Recent Trends in Environmental Hydraulics
This book presents an overview of current research problems and advances in theoretical and applied aspects of environmental hydraulics. The rapid development of this branch of water studies in recent years has contributed to our fundamental understanding of processes in natural aquatic systems and helped provide solutions for civil engineering and water resources management. The book features comprehensively reviewed versions of invited lectures and regular presentations given at the 38th International School of Hydraulics, held May 21–24, 2019, in Łąck, Poland. With papers by leading international experts as well as young researchers from around the globe, it covers recent findings from laboratory and field studies, numerical modeling related to sediment and pollutant transport processes in rivers, fluvial morphodynamics, flow in vegetated channels and hydraulic structures in rivers and estuaries.

Lezioni di Idraulica Marittima
Il volume è un compendio delle equazioni più note dell’idraulica marittima, con numerosi dettagli nella presentazione delle ipotesi, dei metodi risolutivi, dei risultati. La comprensione dei contenuti richiede la conoscenza dell’Analisi Matematica e di alcuni elementi della teoria dei campi, che è stata sinteticamente delineata nell’Appendice. Il primo capitolo è dedicato alla teoria dell’onda lineare che, nella sua elementarità, è ancora il fondamento di numerose applicazioni ingegneristiche. È di particolare rilievo il fatto che i numerosi processi fisici descritti dalla teoria dell’onda lineare hanno richiesto, per la verifica sperimentale, solo delle misure di livello. I...
Onde in acque basse
Questa monografia tratta della propagazione di onde in condizioni di acque basse, argomento trattato nel Corso di Idrodinamica dell’Università di Padova (Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Ingegneria Civile). Lo scopo di questi appunti, che per semplicità si limitano alla trattazione unidimensionale, è quello di presentare una panoramica dei diversi problemi che si incontrano nell’ambito della dinamica delle onde in acque basse, focalizzando l’attenzione sugli aspetti fenomenologici e sull’importanza relativa dei termini che compongono le equazioni del moto attraverso la valutazione e la discussione degli effetti determinati dal diverso modo di semplificare o riorganizzare queste equazioni. Sono riportati esempi applicativi e alcuni confronti tra le soluzioni fornite dalle diverse teorie illustrate. Trattandosi di appunti per la didattica, negli sviluppi matematici, sono stati mantenuti molti dei passaggi intermedi così da facilitare la comprensione.
