CWR6150: Engineering Hydrology 3
Prerequisites: CWR 4202C Hydraulics Engineering, MAP 2302 Ordinary Differential Equations This course covers the engineering applications of physical and statistical hydrology. The principles of surface and groundwater hydrology are reviewed. Tools for hydrologic analysis, including rainfall-runoff analysis, unit hydrographs, flow routing, statistical hydrology, and frequency analysis, are presented. The course culminates in the application of principles and analytical tools to hydrologic design, including design storms, design flows, and risk analysis. Students are introduced to the application of watershed models to hydrologic design.
