Prerequisites:
Basic notions of mathematics, geometry and physics. The course provides the basic notions in hydraulics to achieve the course objectives.
Objectives Contents The course presents the characteristics of drainage basins and the motion of surface water courses. The course points out the relevant aspects of fluid dynamics for the transport and deposition of particulate sedimentary materials. The concepts of fluid dynamics are used to deal with the movement of bottom and suspended sediments, geometry, kinematics and dynamics of ripples and dunes.
Extended Syllabus The course addresses the following main topics:
