Course Objective

The aim of this course is to provide the details of the undergraduate knowledge and to deal with advanced hydralic engineering problems. It is aimed to visualise and strengthen the theoretical concepts by means of the hydraulic Laboratory opportunites. This course also involves the solution of the hydraulic engineering problems with complicated boundary conditions by using the finite differences method with the aid of computer.
