|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 101-0249-00L | Selected Topics on Hydraulic Engineering Prerequisites: 101-0247-01L Hydraulic Engineering II or equivalent course. | 3 credits | 2S | R. Boes, I. Albayrak | |
| Abstract | The lecture focuses on selected topics in hydraulic engineering, water management and aquatic ecology relating to hydropower and flood protection projects. | ||||
| Learning objective | to deepen knowledge on special aspects in hydraulic engineering and to understand the procedures and the planning sequence of hydropower projects | ||||
| Content | Different selected topics in hydraulic engineering will be focused on, e.g. dam safety, possible problems at reservoirs like sedimentation or natural hazards by impulse waves, the hydraulics of river flows, spillways and intake structures at dams and weirs, hydropower and ecology like fish-ecological aspects at low-head hydropower plants and eco-hydraulics like flow-vegetation interaction. Another focus will be put on typical approaches and procedures in the planning process of hydropower projects. | ||||
| Lecture notes | Lecture notes/handouts will be available online. | ||||
| Literature | is specified in the lecture. | ||||
| Prerequisites / Notice | External speakers will present current topics and projects in Switzerland and abroad. | ||||
