CE 3354 Engineering Hydrology Lecture 1: Introduction, Team Assignments
Outline • Introduction • Syllabus Review • Web Server Introduction • Team Designation
Introduction • Me: Theodore G. Cleveland, Ph.D., P.E., M. ASCE, F. EWRI • Something Epic: In 1986 I rode a bicycle from Arcata, CA to Bryson City, NC; hitchiked to New York city to see statue of liberty. And later hitchiked from NC to Denver CO, finally took a bus back to California for graduate school. • You: I will call your name (alphabetical). You tell us what you want to be called, and something epic. If nothing epic, then something quirky about yourself.
SYLLABUS • The syllabus is posted on the class web site: • http://www.rtfmps.com/ce3354-2016-1/ • The website (above) has a copy of textbooks that are referred to as well as extensive notes, and the exercise set and project statement. Be sure to visit the website before each lecture to check for updates.
Web Server Overview • Course materials to be supplied by web server • URL: http://www.rtfmps.com/ce3354-2016-1/ • The next few slides show how to navigate the web server. • Keep in mind that items are uploaded sometimes just a few minutes in advance. • We do try to stay ahead on the Exercise Sets, and Project Directory. • The use of an off-campus server is for reliability and IP isolation.
TEAM DESIGNATIONS • Everyone is assigned to a Team • Homework is a team assignment, elect or appoint a leader. • Homework is printed; email NOT accepted. • Project reports are team assignment • Get to know your team today. Exchange e-mail and phone numbers. Your team is like your family, don’t let them down.
Next Time • Surface and groundwater systems • Introduction to software (overview of HEC-HMS)
