International Journal of Hydraulic Engineering

International Journal of Hydraulic Engineering features the extensive use of gravity as the motive force to cause the movement of the fluids. This area of civil engineering is intimately related to the design of bridges, dams, channels, canals, and levees, and to both sanitary and environmental engineering. It accepts original contributions that describe the analysis and solutions of problems in hydraulic engineering.
