FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A good understanding of flow in a number of hydraulic structures, such as energy dissipators, among others, is needed to effectively control upstream and downstream flow conditions, for instance, high water depth and velocity to ensure, scouring, flow stability and control scouring, which is thus crucial to ensuring safe acceptable operation. Although some previous research exists on minimizing scouring and flow fluctuations after hydraulic structures, none of this research can fully resolve all issues of concern. In this research, three types of structures were studied, as follows: a) a vertical gate; b) a vertical gate with an expansion; and c) …
