PREFACE

Since the publication of the book “Irrigation Engineering”, the author has been receiving suggestions to include a chapter on ‘Hydrology’ as, at many institutions in the country, Hydrology is being taught as part of the course on either ‘Irrigation and Water Resources Engineering’ or ‘Water Resources Engineering’. While the major contents of this book remain the same as that of the book “Irrigation Engineering”, significant additions and revisions have been made in almost all chapters of the book. Besides an additional chapter on Hydrology, other significant additions are : (i) detailed environmental aspects for water resource projects, (ii) operation, maintenance, and evaluation of canal irrigation systems, (iii) note on interlinking of rivers in India, and (iv) design problems of hydraulic structures such as guide bunds, settling basin etc.

Recent developments in Hydraulic Engineering related to Irrigation and Water Resources Engineering have been incorporated in the text. Accordingly, the book “Irrigation Engineering” has now been retitled as “Irrigation and Water Resources Engineering”.

It is hoped that the book, in its present form, will be more useful to the undergraduate students of Civil Engineering (and also, to some extent, graduate students of Water Resources Engineering as well), and the practicing engineers dealing with water resources.

The author would like to sincerely appreciate the efforts of the learned authors as well as the publishers of the referenced literature. The author has been immensely benefited by his association with his colleagues at IIT Roorkee (formerly University of Roorkee) who have been associated with the teaching and research in the field of Water Resources Engineering. In particular, however, the author would like to express his sincere thanks to Dr. K.G. Ranga Raju (who reviewed the original manuscript of “Irrigation Engineering”) and Dr. B.S. Mathur who reviewed the chapter on “Hydrology”.

The forbearance of my wife Savi and sons Anshul and Manish during the period I was busy writing the manuscript of this book is heartily appreciated. The staffs of the publishers of the book deserve all praise for their nice jobs of printing and publishing the book.
