Abstract：This course provides the background for the hydraulic modeling and goes on to give the similarity theory and techniques of hydraulic modeling. It covers every essential phase of the subject by examining the processes of erosion, transportation, and deposition of sediment particles, the process of morphological deformation under gravity, flowing water and wave. The design and construction of hydraulic model, and methods for data collection and analysis are discussed in details. Applications in coastal and river engineering are demonstrated.
