Abstract: A recently developed theory is used to establish criteria for determining regions of possible motions in a reduced configuration space for a rigid body having one fixed point. Such regions are ...

Abstract: An experimental study of new proposed stepped-spillway configurations using sills or baffles on the step treads with sharp or rounded brinks is introduced to investigate the location of and the flow depth at inception point ...

Abstract: A new approach for studying forced hydraulic jumps below abrupt symmetric and asymmetric expansions is introduced. Intensive experiments for two expansion ratios, one asymmetry ratio, and different solid sill heights and ...
