Abstract: Slide gates are commonly used to adjust flow in open canals. The discharge coefficient (Cd) for a slide gate is a function of the gate’s geometric and hydraulic characteristics. For free flow conditions, Cd depends on the ...

Abstract: The effects of geometrical parameters (crest height, number of cycles, and plan weir configuration), are investigated experimentally on labyrinth weirs, over a range of headwater ratios of 0.1 to 0.6. Trapezoidal and ...

Abstract: Weirs are commonly used for making discharge measurements in irrigation canals. There are several types of weirs that are categorized based on their geometric shape or hydraulic properties. A gabion weir is a porous weir ...

Abstract: Piles are walls that are installed underneath hydraulic structures to control seepage flow, uplift pressure, and exit hydraulic gradient. In this study, the effect of the ratio of width of the apron to the foundation depth ...
