Introduction -- Properties of fluids -- Fluid statics -- Basics of fluid flow -- Energy in steady flow -- Momentum and forces in fluid flow -- Similitude and dimensional analysis -- Steady incompressible flow in pressure conduits -- Forces on immersed bodies -- Steady flow in open channels -- Fluid measurements -- Unsteady-flow problems -- Steady flow of compressible fluids -- Ideal flow mathematics -- Hydraulic machinery: pumps -- Hydraulic machinery: turbines.

"This book is well known and well respected in the civil engineering market and has a following among civil engineers. This book is for civil engineers that teach fluid mechanics both within their discipline and as a service course to mechanical engineering students. As with all previous editions this 10th edition is extraordinarily accurate, and its coverage of open channel flow and transport is superior. There is a broader coverage of all topics in this edition of Fluid Mechanics with Engineering Applications. Furthermore, this edition has numerous computer-related problems that can be solved in Matlab and Mathcad."--Publisher's description.
