Addressing the issue of insufficient engineering application capabilities in the teaching practice of the hydraulics course, this study systematically explores how to optimize theoretical teaching content and reform experimental teaching methods. Emphasizing the concept of "engineering application," the study promotes classroom case teaching, integrates design experiments, focuses on process assessment, and establishes a teaching model for cultivating engineering application-oriented talents. In hydraulics teaching, the focus is on enhancing practical engineering and application abilities, cultivating students' skills in hydraulic design calculations, and providing a reference for teaching mechanics courses with an engineering application background.
