Introduction
1.1. Discussion
Recently there has been a significant increase in the number
of practicing civil engineers using computer programs for the preparation of water resource related studies. With the advent of inexpensive microcomputer systems, detailed hydrology and hydraulics studies can be prepared at a fraction of the cost of analysis prepared by hand calculations. Additionally, with the availability of software prepared especially for microcomputers, new advances in water resources are readily distributed for use in practical design....
The main objective of this book is to provide both a summary of the basic principles used in water resources related engineering projects, and a collection of FORTRAN computer programs to apply these principles to a microcomputer system. The book focuses upon the following six major fields:
1. Watershed hydrology for urbanized watersheds,
2. Channel hydraulics for storm drain pipeline systems,
3. Water distribution systems,
4. Unsteady and steady flow in open channels,
5. Groundwater flow modeling,
6. Groundwater contamination modeling.
1.2. Presentation
This book has several features that should appeal to both the student or practicing civil engineer who wishes to advance his skills and prepare a comprehensive software library for use on a microcomputer system which supports FORTRAN. These features include:
1. Review of fundamental principles employed in the subject analysis procedures,
2. FORTRAN computer programs tailored for use on a microcomputer system,
3. Detailed example problems,
4. Comprehensive program documentation including, when appropriate, user-friendly input form sheets for display on the computer terminal
It is stressed that the included software is currently in extensive use by small and large civil engineering firms, colleges, and public agencies. Several of the programs are utilized for county-wide water resources planning purposes and flood control engineering.
