Non-Hydrostatic Free Surface Flows (Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics)

This book provides essential information on the higher mathematical level of approximation over the gradually varied flow theory, also referred to as the Boussinesq-type theory. In this context, it presents higher order flow equations, together with their applications in a broad range of pertinent engineering and environmental problems, including open channel, groundwater, and granular material flows.
