CEE 704 Environmental and Water Systems

Introduction to techniques to evaluating alternatives in environmental and water resources systems.

Topics include southwest U.S. water economic analysis, optimization using linear and dynamic

programming, systems modeling using STELLA, analysis of droughts, and current research topics.

Applications focus on surface water systems, operation, and reservoirs, water distribution and environmental systems.

Prerequisite: CEE 413. 3 credits.

 

CEE 407/695 Computer Applications in Environmental and Water Resources Engineering

Application of computer models for analysis and design of environmental and water resource systems.

Includes surface and groundwater hydrology, pipe networks, and water quality computer programs.

Prerequisite: CEE 413 and CEE 450. 3 credits.

 

CEE 413 Water Resources Engineering

Hydraulic and hydrologic design of water distribution, stormwater, and wastewater collection systems.

Introduction to groundwater hydrology. Pumps, pipe flow, and pipe networks. Hydraulic design of open channels,

culverts, and sanitary sewers.

Prerequisites: CEE 367. 3 credits.

 

CEE 367 Fluid Mechanics

Introduction to fluid properties, statics, and fluid dynamics, development and application of fundamental equations for

the study of external and internal flows, compressible flows, dimensional analysis, and turbomachinery. Laboratory exercises

on the dynamics and statics of fluids. Three hours lecture and three hours laboratory. Prerequisites: Admission to construction

management, civil, electrical or mechanical engineering major, ME 242, MATH 283. 4 credits.
