Introduction to Tsallis Entropy Theory in Water EngineeringAuthor(s): Vijay P. Singh\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: CRC Press\nISBN-13: 9781138747944, 978-1138747944\nSynopsis\nFocuses On an Emerging Field in Water Engineering\n\nA broad treatment of the Tsallis entropy theory presented from a water resources engineering point of view, Introduction to Tsallis Entropy Theory in Water Engineering fills a growing need for material on this theory and its relevant applications in the area of water engineering. This self-contained text includes several solved examples, and requires only a basic knowledge of mathematics and probability theory. Divided into four parts, the book begins with a detailed discussion of Tsallis entropy, moves on to hydraulics, expounds on the subject of hydrology, and ends with broad coverage on a wide variety of areas in water engineering.\n\nThe author addresses:\n\nThe Tsallis entropy theory for both discrete a.
