Fundamentals and Advancements in Hydraulic Measurements and Experimentation

Proceedings of a symposium on hydraulic measurements and experimentation, held in Buffalo, New York, August 1-5, 1994.

This collection contains 55 papers on the principles, limitations, and the application of measurements and experimental techniques in hydraulic engineering. Topics include: typical problems associated with hydraulic measurements and instrumentation; flow measurement; scour instrumentation and sediment measurement; sediment modeling and measurement techniques; turbulence measurements and studies; visual and optical techniques for sediment measurements; ice measurement techniques; air/water flow measurement techniques; techniques in hydraulic measurements; instruments for velocity measurements; measurements at hydroelectric and pumping plants; and experimental data collection techniques.
