Supervisor:

Department of Hydraulics and Hydrology

Synopsis:

A Course Hydraulics 2 is focused on practical problems of a hydrostatics (including hydrostatic loading of complicated structures, such as hydrostatic weirs), hydraulics of pipeline (including pipe nets and systems pipes-pumps) and open channel hydraulics (including structures such as spillways, bridges and culverts).

Requirements:

The submission of previously consulted homework assignments by the specified deadlines is the condition for granting credit. During the semester, optional tests are written during the seminars. The point rating obtained from these tests is part of the assessment for the exam.

The exam consists of a numerical part and a theoretical part and is conducted in written form. The overall result of the exam is determined based on the sum of the points from these two parts and the points obtained during optional tests written during seminars during the semester. To successfully pass the exam, it is necessary to obtain at least half of the maximum possible points.

More detailed information is provided on the course website.
