My MS thesis "Flexible Case Management for the Implicit Solution to Border Irrigation." It was important to improve the CFD - computational fluid dynamics - to model and predict irrigation uniformity in level border irrigation. Dr. Strelkoff's modeling, before my work, resulted in computational instability when the water was down about 3/4 of the way down, especially for claying soils.
Before my MS, I worked for SCS for three summers. The last summer was at the Welton - Mohawk Saliity Project, near Yuma, AZ. We had many level borders that we designed.
It is a good introduction to surface irrigation. The format used is appreciable- i.e., understandable. More lecture notes are required to help acquire knowledge to design surface irrigation. So, include videos of headworks, canals and canal structures designs.
