[CB6 ]. To possess and understand knowledge that provides a basis or opportunity to be original in the development and / or application of ideas, often in a research context.
[CB9 ]. Students are required to be able to communicate their conclusions as well as the knowledge and last reasons that sustain them to specialized and non-specialized audiences in a clear and unambiguous way.
[G02 ]. To properly and with a certain originality write literary compositions or motivated arguments, plans, work projects or scientific articles or to formulate reasonable hypothese.
[T05 ]. Problem solving capacity
RA1. Tener la capacidad para diseñar modelos hidráulicos reducidos para analizar problemas complejos.
RA2. Saber modelar y simular numéricamente diferentes problemas hidráulicos y/o hidrológicos.
RA3. Capacidad para enfrentar problemas nuevos.
RA4. Saber comunicar con eficacia oralmente sobre resultados técnicos.
RA5. Redactar correctamente trabajos técnicos y de investigación.
Modelling in hydraulic engineering. Reduced physical models in hydraulics engineering. Application of different computer programs in hydraulics and hydrology - case studies.
I. Physical Hydraulic Modeling.
T1 - Pi theorem. Dimensional analysis and physical semblance. Non-dimensional numbers. Universal equation of the Hydraulic. Inspectional analysis.
II. Numerical simulation and analysis of hydraulic systems through specialized software.
T2 - Introduction to hydraulic pressure networks. Input data to build hydraulic pressure networks. EPANET. Calculation bases, use and modelling. Practical cases. Analysis of results of the model and system optimization.
T3 - Introduction to the hydraulic open channel flow systems. Input data to build open channel flow models. HEC-RAS calculation bases, use and modelling. Practical cases. Analysis of results of the model.
Resolution of exercises and practical cases.
Practical exercises are carried out in the classroom. The students have a time to try to solve each exercise before it is solved by the teaching staff and/or the students. Class sessions are completed with the resolution at home of exercises proposed by the teaching staff. Additionally, experimental and/or computer practices will be carried out on: Practice 1: Dimensional analysis exercises. Practice 2: Design and measurement of a reduced physical model. Practice 3: Numerical resolution of pressure networks. Practice 4: Numerical resolution of free surface flows in channels and rivers.
Promoting the continuous improvement of working and study conditions of the entire university community is one the basic principles and goals of the Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena. Such commitment to prevention and the responsibilities arising from it concern all realms of the university: governing bodies, management team, teaching and research staff, administrative and service staff and students. The UPCT Service of Occupational Hazards (Servicio de Prevención de Riesgos Laborales de la UPCT) has published a "Risk Prevention Manual for new students" (Manual de acogida al estudiante en materia de prevención de riesgos), which may be downloaded from the e-learning platform ("Aula Virtual"), with instructions and recommendations on how to act properly, from the point of view of prevention (safety, ergonomics, etc.), when developing any type of activity at the University. You will also find recommendations on how to proceed in an emergency or if an incident occurs. Particularly when carrying out training practices in laboratories, workshops or field work, you must follow all your teacher's instructions, because he/she is the person responsible for your safety and health during practice performance. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and do not put your safety or that of your classmates at risk.

Exercises and / or practical cases
Resolution of real cases, problems and evaluation of reports carried out. Evaluation of learning outcomes RA 1, 2, 3, and 5. In each exercise and/or case, the student will be evaluated using evaluation rubrics about their skills for design and model hydraulic and hydrological problems, their capacity to solve problems different from those presented in class, and their ability to write technical/research reports, including the justification of the parameters used, the methodology, the literature review, the citing, and the clarity of the report.

Reports on practical sessions and / or visits
Individual reports and/or in groups. Evaluation of learning outcomes RA 1, 2, 3 and 5. In each case, the development of the student (individual or in groups) will be evaluated using evaluation rubrics about their skills for design and model hydraulic and hydrological problems, their capacity to solve problems different from those presented in class, and their ability to write technical/research reports, including the justification of the parameters used, the methodology, and the clarity of the report.
10 %
Theoretical questions
Theoretical questions related with the practices/problems. Evaluation of learning outcomes RA 1 and 2. A multiple choice type exam may be used to evaluate several aspects of the technical parts. The right answers should be selected from four possible options.
15 %
Individual or group assignments
Presentation of one of the reports individually or in groups. Evaluation of learning outcome RA 4. In each case, the development of the student (individual or in groups) will be evaluated using evaluation rubrics about their soft skills, such as the clarity in oral presentations.

Exercises and / or practical cases
Resolution of real cases, problems and evaluation of reports carried out. Evaluation of learning outcomes RA 1, 2, 3, and 5. In the final evaluation the cases to be solved will be equivalent to those of the continuous evaluation. However, the input data may be changed. In each exercise and/or case, the student will be evaluated using evaluation rubrics about their skills for design and model hydraulic and hydrological problems, their capacity to solve problems different from those presented in class, and their ability to write technical/research reports, including the justification of the parameters used, the methodology, the literature review, the citing, and the clarity of the report.
