Supporting Material

This material was first made to support the course CIV-ENV 340: Hydraulics and Hydrology that I taught during the Spring quarter of 2023 at Northwestern University.

It is divided in the ten weeks of the quarter, covering concepts in hydraulics of presurized pipe systems, open channel flow, and basic hydrology. This class included short computational projects, in which we...

... built our own EPANET® using scipy
... made a gradually-variable flow calculator
... delineated a real watershed programatically
... queried and analyzed stream gauge data from USGS
