ABSTRAK
Kajian tentang pengedaran daya rintangan ricih air merupakan salah satu elemen
yang penting dalam kebanyakan bidang hidraulik kejuruteraan. Pengetahuan tentang
pengedaran daya rintangan ricih air dapat membantu jurutera memahami struktur
aliran air mekanik. Selain itu, pengedaran daya geseran air juga amat penting dalam
proses pengangkutan mendapan terutamanya mendapan yang berlaku di sungai.
Tujuan utama kajian ini adalah untuk memahami pengedaran daya geseran air dalam
saluran terbuka. Secara kesuluruhan, experimen ini dijalankan di Makmal Civil
Hidraulik. Selain itu, formula Stokes (1845) akan digunakan untuk pengiraan daya
geseran untuk dinding saluran terbuka. Formula yang sama akan diaplikasikan
untuk daya geseran pada katil saluran terbuka. Di samping itu, keputusan experimen
akan dibandingkan dengan teori yang sedia ada. Secara kesuluruhannya, didapati
bahawa daya rintangan ricih air bergantung kepada jarak dari dinding saluran terbuka.
Peningkatan nilai daya rintangan ricih menyebabkan kelajuan air di dalam saluran
terbuka berkurangan.

ABSTRACT
The study of shear stress distribution is an important element in most hydraulic
design field. A knowledge of the shear stress distribution helps in understanding of
the mechanics flows and also solving certain problems such as sediment
transportation and design of stable channels. The objective of this research is to
study the distribution of the shear stress in smooth rectangular open channel. All the
experimental work was conducted using the available open channel in Civil
Engineering Hydrology Laboratory. The Stokes (1845) local wall shear stress
formula will be use to determine the distribution of the shear stress in the open
channel. Similar equation used for determining the local wall shear stress will be use
to study the bed shear stress. Based on the result obtained, the results from this
method are compared with theoretical statements in literature review. The results
show that the increment of shear stress depends on the position of local velocity from
the solid boundary of the open channel. This shows that higher shear stress results in
reduction of local velocity.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 General Overview
The studies of the distribution of shear stress in smooth rectangular open
channel have been conducted widely around the world. Numerous research and
experiments have been carried out to improve understanding of the distribution of the
shear stress in open channel. The term “shear stress” in hydraulics context can be
defined as a flowing liquids subjected by a drag force to its boundary. In other
words, it can be described as the force applied by the flowing liquid attempt to drag
the channel surface downstream with it (Chen and Cotton, 1986).
The study of the shear stress is vital element which can be apply in most
hydraulics design field that can be used to solved hydraulics problem. For example,
further studies of distribution of shear stress enable hydraulics engineer to improve
their hydraulic structure design such as storm water drainage channel and also to
have better understanding on channel erosion problem.
One of the important studies of shear stress conducted by Lundgren and Jonsson
(1964) on analytical study of boundary shear stress in straight channel has
contributed to the study of bank erosion. Furthermore, their researched have been
2
carried out and improved by Houjou et al. (1990) to calculate the boundary shear
stress in open channel flow.
1.2 Significance Study on Determining the Shear Stress
The distribution of shear stress studies gave important impact in hydraulic
structure design, research on sediment transportation and also in the study of velocity
distribution. According to Guo and Julien (2005), it is essential to separate the bed
shear stress and wall shear stress to study open channel flows. From the knowledge
of the shear stress separation, the application of wall shear stress knowledge can be
adapted to solve channel migration and erosion problem. For example, the
development of wall shear stress equation enables the hydraulic engineers to
determine the amount of shear stress applied to the channel wall according to the
velocity of the liquid flow. From these data, engineers are able to predict the shear
force effect and designed a hydraulic structure such as hydraulically stable storm
water drainage channel that can collect and convey the storm water without causing
erosion problem.

1.3 Objective and Purpose
The following is the aim of the study:
i. To study the distribution of shear stress in a smooth rectangular open

1.4 Scope of Study
The study of distribution of shear stress in smooth rectangular open channel is
only limited to uniform flow. During the study, experimental result is conducted in
order to obtain the required data for analysis purposes. Then the experimental result

stress. All the experimental work will be conducted in Civil Engineering Hydrology
Laboratory, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak.
