This paper presents a methodology for estimation of hydrodynamic loads acting on the bottom and at the walls of a stilling basin of a stepped chute with converging walls, based on the pressure measurements at the selected points of a scale model. This is...

Measurements of mass flow through a three-outlet spillway modeled after a scaled-down spillway were conducted. The inlet and channel leading up to the outlets were placed to lead the water toward the outlet at an angle. With this, measurements of the wat...

Probabilistic risk methods are becoming increasingly accepted as a means of carrying out risk-informed decision making regarding the design and operation policy of structures such as dams. Probabilistic risk calculations require the quantification of epi...

Whilst numerical modelling is commonly used for simulation to check the design of water conveyance, sluicing and spillway structure design, the numerical modelling has rarely been compared with the physical model tests. The objective of this research pre...

The Bonnet Carré Spillway is a large flood control structure that diverts Mississippi River floodwaters into Lake Pontchartrain and the Mississippi Sound to prevent flooding in southern Louisiana and New Orleans. When operating at full capacity, the Spil...

This study develops and evaluates a simulation-optimization approach to mitigate the environmental impacts of freshwater pulses in brackish-water lakes whilst maximizing flood diversion benefits. Lake Pontchartrain, located downstream of the Mississippi ...

Erosional incidents have heightened the necessity of studies regarding rock mass erosion in unlined dam spillways. Enhanced comprehension of hydraulic erodibility necessitates an investigation into the geomechanical and hydraulic aspects of erosional phe...

The piano key (PK) weir is a cost-effective structure for flood discharge. Its typical layout comprises a rectangularly cranked crest in planform with up- and downstream overhangs. With the intention to enhance its hydraulic efficiency, the conventional ...

The significance of spillways is to allow the flood to be safely discharged from downstream. There is a strong correlation between the poor design of spillways and the failures of dams. In order to address this concern, the present study investigates the...
