This lecture covers the basic data related to hydraulic installations, focusing on bedload theory, shear stresses, and solid flow. It discusses the principles of bedload theory, shear stress calculations, and the passive resistance of materials in hydraulic construction. The lecture also delves into the factors affecting solid transport in natural streams and artificial channels, such as roughness, water level, and bed width. Various formulas and measurements by renowned authors are presented, shedding light on the complex nature of bedload theory and its practical applications in hydraulic engineering.
