This well-preserved 1959 edition of “Open-Channel Hydraulics” by Ven Te Chow is a seminal work in the field of hydraulic engineering. Chow, a pioneering researcher and educator at the University of Illinois, made significant contributions to the understanding of open-channel flow, a critical aspect of water resource management and civil engineering projects. This book, which became a standard reference in the field, presents a comprehensive treatment of the principles and applications of open-channel hydraulics, including the analysis of uniform and non-uniform flows, hydraulic design of channels, and the study of hydraulic structures such as weirs and spillways. With its clear explanations and practical examples, this volume remains a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professionals in hydraulic engineering, hydrology, and related disciplines. Despite its age, this copy’s clean pages and secure binding attest to its enduring value as a well-preserved piece of engineering literature.
