This textbook offers a thorough mechanical analysis of rivers from upland areas to oceans. It scrutinizes state-of-the-art methods, underlining both theory and engineering applications.
Each chapter includes a presentation of fundamental principles, followed with an engineering analysis and instructive problems, examples, and case studies illustrating engineering design. The emphasis is on river equilibrium, river dynamics, bank stabilization, and river engineering. Channel stability and river dynamics are examined in terms of river morphology, lateral migration, aggradation, and degradation. The text provides a detailed treatment of riverbank stabilization and engineeringmethods. Separate chapters cover physical andmathematical models of rivers. This textbook also contains essential reading
for understanding themechanics behind the formation and propagation of devastating floods, and offers knowledge crucial to the design of appropriate countermeasures to reduce ?ood impact, prevent bank ero sion, improve navigation, increase water supply, andmaintain suitable aquatic habitat.

More than 100 exercises (including computer problems) and nearly 20 case studies enhance graduate-student learning, while researchers and practitioners seeking broad technical expertise will ?nd it a valuable reference.

The author, Pierre Y. Julien is Professor of Civil Engineering at Colorado State University.
