What is the relationship between river depth and width and velocity of flow?
Manning equation if the hydraulic radius decreases then the velocity decreases
What is hydraulic mean radius?
Hydraulic Mean Radius = Cross sectional area of conduit divided by the inside (wetted) perimeter.
How do you calculate the roughness coefficient of a river?
the coefficient is found by using the equation: discharge= cross section area (hydraulic radius x gradient) /Manning'scoefficient
What is hydraulic means?
Hydraulic Mean Radius = Cross sectional area of conduit divided by the inside (wetted) perimeter.
What is Hydraulic Radius measured in?
there isn't a measurment for hydraulic radius as far as i know and if you g on any website about it it doesnt have any measurements at the end of it. Josh (A level geography student) hydraulic radius has a unit as it is the ratio of c/s area to the wetted perimeter i. e. A/P so unit of length............ thanks........jayesh gakare,(M.TECH.

What part of the crankshaft can be rolled with a hydraulic roller to increase crankshaft strength?
The main journal radius, rod journal radius or otherwise both are known as the fillet.
What is the difference between hydraulic action and abrasion?
By: Gwen The difference between abrasion and hydraulic action is that: In "Hydraulic action" the water flows so fast that it is forced to crack the bank BUT For in "Abrasion" the river bed is broken/cracked because of the rock and stones in the river.
What are the three ways in which a river erodes its valley?
Corrasion, Hydraulic action, Attrition

Do river turn wider when it goes to the downstream?
Yes it does, one of the reasons is erosion. Hydraulic action and corrosion erode the bends of the river making the outside bend wider. :P
What is river hydraulics?
River hydraulics involves flowing water and its impact on the landscape. This includes the hydraulic characteristics of streams and rivers ranging from dam break analysis to sediment movement analysis.
