HYDRAULICS
« The soft nature of water spills suddenly overflowing with over ... or solid bridges can withstand sudden onslaught of water presses»
Lucrezio
The hydraulic engineering is the branch of civil engineering that deals with the study of phenomena related to static and kinematic fields of fluids, especially water. The fields of study are manifold: pressurized conduit flows, free surface flows, wave motions of solid material transport, hydrology, filtration motion.
The hydraulic engineering is divided into various disciplines
- HYDRAULIC deals with the study of one-dimensional fluids, two-dimensional and three-dimensional, in uniform motion, permanent or varied, under pressure or free surface.
- HYDROLOGY is the study of rainfall on river basins and their transformation into runoff, surface and subsurface.
- HYDRAULIC involved in the design of hydraulic structures through the application of the principles of hydraulics and hydrology.
- CONSTRUCTION MARITIME deal with the wave motion of the study and design of maritime works (harbors, dams, canals, piers)
SOME PROJECTS
- Replacement works of old and cracked pipe sections for the elimination of the inefficiency in the Croce area
- Construction of walls and diaphragm upstream and downstream and hydraulics works in the S. Paolo area
- Environmental and hydrogeological works of the slope in the Pagliazzo area downstream of the city center
- Design of drainage trenches and works of requalification and functional enhancement of the archaeological park “Parco Cavallo” in Sibari
