Abstract: The hydraulic behavior of several continuous transverse gully grates is studied. Their use is common in some urban or impervious areas (squares, airport pavements, parks, pedestrian areas, etc.) where isolated inlets turn ...

Abstract: This paper presents the benefits of using an irrigation canal scale model as a main tool for introducing systems dynamics and control to postgraduate civil engineers. The canal is used as an educational resource for teaching ...

Abstract: The basic unit in a free‐surface controlled water distribution network could be composed by a single reach with upstream and downstream gates. Different methods have been proposed in the literature to control water level, ...

Abstract: An experimental study of the supercritical dividing flow in a right-angle, four-branch junction with different channel widths is presented. Lateral-to-mainstream width ratios of

Abstract: Real accuracy of several calibration methods for sluice gates working in the submerged orifice flow condition was determined considering water discharge from water levels and gate openings. Data were taken from three gates ...

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to improve and complete the results presented in a previous work published on this journal about an experimental campaign focused on the hydraulic efficiency of continuous transverse grates for ...
