  2. Manning formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manning_formula

    The GaucklerManning formula states: = / / where: V is the cross-sectional average velocity (dimension of L/T; units of ft/s or m/s); n is the GaucklerManning coefficient. Units of n are often omitted, however n is not dimensionless, having dimension of T/L 1/3 and units of s/m 1/3.

  3. Albert Strickler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Strickler

    In civil engineering practice, the Manning formula is more widely used than Stricker’s dimensionally homogeneous form of the equation. However, Strickler’s observations on the influence of surface roughness and the concept of relative roughness are common features of a variety of formulas used to estimate hydraulic roughness.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Manning_formula

    "The Manning formula, known also as the Gauckler-Strickler formula in Europe, is an empirical formula for open channel flow, or flow driven by gravity. It was developed by the Irish engineer Robert Manning. For more than a hundred years, this formula lacked a theoretical derivation.

    Strickler is a surname. Notable people with the surname include: Albert Strickler (1887–1963), co-author of the GaucklerManning–Strickler formula; Amelia Strickler (born 1994), British shot putter

  6. Shear velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_velocity

    Shear velocity, also called friction velocity, is a form by which a shear stress may be re-written in units of velocity.It is useful as a method in fluid mechanics to compare true velocities, such as the velocity of a flow in a stream, to a velocity that relates shear between layers of flow.

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Manning_(engineer)

    Robert Manning. Robert Manning (22 October 1816 – 9 December 1897) was an Irish hydraulic engineer best known for creation of the Manning formula. Manning was born in Normandy, France, the son of a soldier who had fought the previous year at the Battle of Waterloo. In 1826 he moved to Waterford, Ireland and in time worked as an accountant.
