Around 1864 Maxwell laid the foundation of electromagnetic theory, which formed the crowning achievement of 19th century physics. Max Born wondered how Maxwell could introduce the decisive step by adding the missing term the displacement current without proper empirical foundation. He argued that it may be that Maxwell was first guided by mechanical models of the ether, later by reasons of mathematical perfection or beauty or however one may describe it as an act of genius. At the beginning of the 19th century, it was realized that the basic principles of Maxwell need not undergo any change...

Primarily written as course material on flood control and drainage engineering for advanced students of civil engineering, this new fourth edition is again thoroughly revised. It accommodates recent developments in remote sensing, information technology and GIS technology. New added material deals with flood management due to Tsunami waves, flooding due to dam failure and breaking of embankments, application of dredging technologies, problems of flood forecasting, flood plain prioritization and flood hazard zoning, and engineering measures for flood control. Drainage improvement is tackled,...
