Design of hydraulic structures (as practiced in Malaysia) / Othman Abdullah and Zulkefle Ghazali

Hydraulic structures are used in storm runoff drainage works to control water. Flowing water does not readily change direction, accelerate or slow down without help, and, water will flow faster than it should if a thalweg is too steep, causing uncontrolled erosion. Hydraulic structures increase the...
